Capt. Vijay Bist

Capt. Vijay Bist

Director - Business Development and Operations at Safe Lanes

Trust, Integrity and Maritime Excellence

“I have had the privilege of knowing Capt. Manoj since our sailing days. He served under my command first as Second Officer and later as Additional Chief Officer. Even then, what stood out most was his unwavering commitment to his commitments. He brings an exceptional passion to deliver excellence, regardless of the scale of responsibility. His dedication to quality, attention to detail, and the pride he takes in exceeding expectations are truly unmatched. To stand beside Capt. Manoj is to stand beside trust, integrity, and reliability. As an experienced Master Mariner, his command of oil tanker operations and in-depth knowledge of international regulatory standards are unparalleled. This expertise ensures seamless fleet management and complete technical compliance. Beyond his seafaring career, Capt. Manoj is a visionary entrepreneur. He has successfully founded Maritime Development Lanka, reflecting his forward-thinking approach and commitment to advancing the maritime industry.”
