Petrasco, an Aberdeen-based international freight forwarder which specialises in serving the energy industry, has appointed Kevin Buchan as global Managing Director.

Mr Buchan (42), who is based in the Dubai office, will now have overall responsibility for developing Petrasco’s operations in its offices in Aberdeen, Dubai and Houston and for leading further development on a world wide scale.

He said his plans for the future of the company will be to build on existing business while developing the company’s global presence.

“As a company we are very focused on our people, our clients and our facilities and it is our proactive personal approach to service which has seen Petrasco grow and make its mark when competing against the global giants,” he said.

“My priority will be to continue to develop business in our current locations while establishing company growth in the other key energy hubs around the world through maintaining our commitment to provide a focussed personal service for every client from a world class facility.”
