Pacific Green Technologies (PGT), the scrubber company supplying systems to Scorpio Group, has taken on a former shipbroker in its expanding Oslo office.

Anders Jorgen Roine, who has more than 25 years commercial shipping experience as a shipbroker and senior chartering manager in London, New York and Oslo, has joined PGT as direct sales commercial and business development director.

He joined Simpson Spence & Young in London as a trainee after leaving The Royal Norwegian Navy and then moved to New York to work for Skaarup Chartering as a broker and chartering manager for five years.
