Caribbean Maritime Centre looks for Gulf Investment

Speaking in advance of its regional debut at the Seatrade Middle East Maritime (SMEM) exhibition in Dubai this December, a representative of the St. Kitts & Nevis International Ship Registry (SKANReg) said ocean-going trade would dominate the Gulf’s rising export industry.

‘As the Middle East’s political situation gets calmer, trade and exports within the region will grow and shipping will carry 80-90% of that growth in trade,’ said Nigel Smith SKANReg’s International Registrar of Shipping and Seamen.
