Company information
Wirana Shipping Corporation’s Dubai office is listed at HDS Business Centre in Jumeirah Lake Towers. It provides a local contact point for enquiries about the company’s vessel cash-buying and ship-recycling business. The local listing gives a Dubai telephone number and email address; the wider service and experience described below belong to Wirana globally, rather than being claims about the size or staffing of the Dubai office.
A global vessel cash buyer
Wirana describes itself as one of the world’s largest and oldest cash buyers of vessels, with more than 35 years of experience. The company says it has handled more than 2,700 vessels representing over 88 million deadweight tonnes. It also reports an average of about 100 to 150 vessels of different types and sizes handled annually over the preceding decade and a half. These figures describe the global company.
The company’s work centres on purchasing vessels for recycling. Its stated interests include ships and tankers, and its website also refers to rigs. Wirana presents performance, integrity and quality as central to its business and describes long-standing relationships with buyers, sellers and brokers worldwide. These are company-wide background details, not Dubai-office operating statistics.
Vessel purchase and recycling support
Wirana’s core activity is buying vessels intended for recycling and coordinating their sale and delivery. For an initial vessel enquiry, the company’s quote form requests practical particulars such as the vessel name and IMO number, type, flag, build details, dimensions, lightweight and tonnage figures, machinery information, location, delivery timing and the seller’s price idea. Tanker-specific questions include details such as heating coils and cargo equipment. This illustrates the information a seller may be asked to provide when seeking a quote; it does not establish a particular price or outcome.
The company also describes support for environmentally responsible recycling. Its website says it works with recycling yards and assists shipowners with recycling solutions aligned with the Hong Kong Convention and European Union Ship Recycling Regulations. Described activities include coordinating preparation and checking of an Inventory of Hazardous Materials, working with a yard on a Ship Recycling Plan, monitoring preparations and dismantling against the plan, and reporting recycling progress. These are capabilities described for Wirana’s overall business, not a promise that every task is conducted by the Dubai office or included in every transaction.
Dubai office and global capabilities
The official contact page lists Wirana’s Dubai address as 1206A HDS Business Centre, Cluster M, Jumeirah Lake Towers, Dubai, United Arab Emirates. It gives three telephone numbers and a UAE-specific email address. This establishes a local office contact for the company. The contact page does not detail the Dubai office’s individual services or staffing, so Wirana’s wider vessel-purchasing and recycling activities should be understood as global company capabilities.
Wirana’s global operations include engagement with recycling yards and support to vessel owners. Its About Us page also refers to a company-associated yard in Alang, India. That information concerns the broader business and its recycling network; it should not be read as a Dubai facility or as evidence that recycling takes place at the Dubai address.
Preparing a vessel enquiry
The quote form shows the technical scope relevant to a vessel assessment: identity and principal dimensions, tonnage, propulsion and auxiliary machinery, equipment, condition-related particulars, recent cargo history and proposed delivery arrangements. Sellers can use these fields to organise the information for a discussion with Wirana. Tanker owners may need to prepare additional cargo-system details, while owners of other vessel types should refer to the form’s applicable fields.
For recycling support, the company describes coordination among shipowners, recycling yards and technical experts. Its stated process can include review of hazardous-material information, planning, monitoring yard preparations and dismantling, and periodic progress reporting. The scope will depend on the vessel and the specific service agreed; the published pages do not set out a universal process or terms for every case.
Making an enquiry to the Dubai office
For a vessel-related enquiry, owners and sellers can contact the Dubai office using the UAE telephone numbers or local email address above. It may be useful to have the vessel’s IMO number, type, flag, principal particulars, location, preferred delivery details and price expectations ready, since the company’s quote form asks for much of this information. If recycling assistance is sought, consider asking what technical documents are needed, whether hazardous-material inventory support is available for the vessel, and which parts of yard coordination or progress reporting are within the proposed scope. These are practical questions for an initial discussion, not commitments about services, prices or response times.
