PETERHEAD PORT AUTHORITY

Peterhead Port Authority operates mainly in a "landlord" capacity, in that stevedoring operations are carried out by third parties. This work is undertaken by independent operators, the most prominent of which is ASCO... Peterhead Port Authority also maintains a close working relationship with the Scottish Maritime Academy in Peterhead (part of NESCOL) and has for many years provided sponsorship to allow the centre to run three annual deckhands courses. This is to encourage youth into a maritime career, whether in fishing or on commercial vessels... Our operations are governed by a clear set of values as outlined in our Mission Statement, and we are deeply conscious of our obligations in relation to safety and the environment.
