Ownership & Management
MADELYN SHIPPING CO PTE LTD appears to be a Singapore-based vessel-owning company in the Raffles/Wilmar shipping ecosystem, with public vessel records showing it as the registered owner of tanker SPICA. The available evidence suggests it is a single-purpose maritime entity rather than a broadly public operating brand. No verified adverse sanctions or enforcement record was found in the gathered sources.
⚠ Red Flags
- Address shared by multiple maritime entities at 28 Biopolis Road, Wilmar International, Singapore 138568
- No independent public corporate profile found for MADELYN SHIPPING CO PTE LTD beyond vessel registry references
- Company appears to function as a single-vessel owning entity based on available vessel records
Raffles Shipmanagement Services Pte Ltd is a Singapore-based commercial ship manager and ISM manager operating in ship management services. Public sources associate the company with the Raffles Shipping Group and list its registered office at Wilmar International, 28 Biopolis Road, Singapore 138568.
⚠ Red Flags
- Shared office address used by maritime entities
- EU regulatory listing of IMO company number 1648580 for the entity under a slightly different legal name
- No verified beneficial ownership found in the available sources
RAFFLES SHIPPING INTL PTE LTD is a Singapore-based commercial ship manager associated with Wilmar International’s Biopolis Road address. Available maritime database records describe it as a ship management company and commercial manager for multiple vessels, with reported fleet size varying by source. It appears to function within Wilmar-linked shipping operations rather than as a standalone public carrier.
⚠ Red Flags
- Reported fleet size differs across sources (5 vessels vs 56 vessels).
- Same Wilmar Biopolis Road address is used across multiple related vessel-owning/management entities.
- The company name appears in both 'Raffles Shipping Intl Pte Ltd' and 'Raffles Shipping International Pte Ltd' variants across sources.
