What stands out most about him, beyond his expertise, is his character and warmth as a person. I believe that quality inspires others to want to be part of his projects and collaborate as a team.”
Sandra Gutterman, Director of Emovere Consulting“I worked with Nicolas Petersen at Stolt-Nielsen for twenty five years. First when he was in tanker chartering sitting in the Buenos Aires office and later when he moved to the Greenwich CT USA office. In addition to his experience in the South American markets, he became very knowledgeable about the Indian Ocean, Europe and AG markets. Later he expanded the company's presence in Mexico. He is flexible as I witnessed when he moved to the Sao Paulo office. Besides the chemical tankership market, Nicolas has a wide knowledge of the iso-tank and container ship market. He has a very strong work ethic and never stops working until the task at hand is solved. I highly recommend him. He is a friend of over thirty-five years.”
