About Us

From recruitment to vessel management, we provide complete, tailored ship management solutions for every stage of your fleet’s needs.

Founded in the UK in 2000, Ryan operates globally, delivering industry-leading, independent crew and ship management services to the offshore and main fleet sectors. With over 25 years of proven expertise, we work in close partnership with state authorities, clients, principals, and ship owners to drive operational excellence through customized, results-oriented solutions. Our service provision spans multinational crew management, technical and operational management, and more. Backed by a team of highly skilled specialists, strategically positioned across our global network, we provide 24/7 support to both crew and clients. Our unwavering commitment to ethical standards and sustainability, combined with a strong focus on teamwork and collaboration, ensures that we consistently deliver trusted, tailor-made services that exceed expectations.

Ryan’s core strength lies in our ability to deliver seamless, full-cycle vessel management with a focus on compliance, safety, and operational efficiency. We oversee all critical aspects of vessel operations, including technical supervision, PMS, procurement, class and flag state compliance, vetting support, HSEQ, and cost control. Our technical team ensures that vessels are always maintained in optimal condition, ready to perform safely and reliably across all trades.

Our crew management services are built on long-term experience and global reach. We handle recruitment, certification tracking, contract management, travel logistics, repatriation, and career development for multinational seafarers. Our structured retention programs, mental health support, and transparent communication help foster safe, motivated, and loyal crews that align with each client’s corporate culture.

Central to our operations is a Lloyd’s Register-approved Cloud Fleet Management system, fully integrated across all departments. This platform enables centralized tracking of technical performance, crewing status, procurement activity, compliance, and real-time reporting. It enhances transparency, allows proactive decision-making, and ensures that both our team and our clients maintain complete visibility over vessel operations, KPIs, inspections, and budgets through a secure and user-friendly interface.

Beyond traditional ship management, Ryan offers commercial and transactional support for vessel acquisitions, disposals, and green recycling. We assist clients with market analysis, negotiations, technical due diligence, and pre-purchase inspections. For end-of-life tonnage, we ensure environmentally responsible dismantling in accordance with the Hong Kong Convention and EU SRR, safeguarding crew welfare and environmental integrity at every stage.

Whether managing a single unit or a multi-vessel fleet, Ryan acts as a strategic partner committed to safeguarding asset value, improving cost efficiency, and ensuring regulatory readiness. Our integrated services, digital infrastructure, and experienced personnel provide the stability and confidence our clients need to navigate an increasingly demanding maritime environment.
