Podcast: On and Offshore Perspectives of a Maritime Trainee
In this episode, we ask our 18-month Maritime Trainee, Andreas Krossøy, to take us on a journey of his 5-week stint sailing aboard MV Bass from Europe to South America and to tell us a little more about his work onshore with KCC’s ongoing energy efficiency initiatives.
Host: Engebret Dahm, CEO
