It is alwaysvery nice to have a chanceto meet our seafaring colleagues in such amiablecircumstances, and man, do these guys know how totell a story! As the editor of this newsletter, however, Iwas a bit perturbed by hearing complaints from someof the sailors that Odfjell Quarterly contains too littlecoverage of the vessels and life at sea. Although I haveto admit it felt a bit unfair there and then, we still haveto face the challenge.It is and has always been our definite intention that themagazine should reflect what’s going on in our entireorganization, at sea and on land. However, we are fullydepending on the material that we receive from all ourcontributors throughout Odfjell. Hence, let me pass thechallenge back to you. If you want more coverage fromyour arena you simply have to supply text and picturesthat portray it. Be it from a vessel, a tank terminal,a container outfit or some administrative/marketingunit. And when you do, please send both text andpictures. If you have a story that you feel is relevantto the magazine, try to add a picture or three asillustrations. And if you have a couple of nice pictures,we also need some text that explains the situationand provides names to the people appearing on theshots. The quality of the pictures is another importantissue. To be able to print them at all, these need to besharp, well lit and with a reasonably high resolution.Although pictures below 100-200 kb may look OK ona computer screen, they’re too small to be printed inany size larger than that of an average postage stamp.So please send original and uncompressed picture filesor paper copies.You may feel that nothing particular is happening atyour place, and thus, that there is nothing to report.Nevertheless, what you consider everyday routine maystill be interesting for someone that does not live andbreath in the same habitat. As an example, I am surethat many of our readers, I for starters, would loveto read a story with some pictures portraying life andwork on a ship during really rough weather. Or to beeven more specific: in our December issue we wouldlike to present how you celebrate Christmas on board,and I ask all ships to supply words and pictures thattell of yuletide festivities and traditions at sea. Do youaccept my challenge?This is the last issue of Odfjell Quarterly being producedby Mr. Jan Ellingsen and his company Feedback AS, atleast for now. Jan has produced a total of 48 issuesfor us, and has played an important role in thedevelopment of Quarterly, from the four page “folder”that appeared back in 1992 to the magazine we knowtoday. We really appreciate his excellent work for us,and we wish him all the best and much success.Back from left: Knut Henrik Kristiansen (medal and watch), Dan Odfjell, JanEinar Nikolaisen (medal), Bjørn Hovland (medal), Idar Åge Remman (medal andwatch), Sten Arild Pedersen (watch).Front from left: Lars Tjore (medal), Atle Bækken (medal), Bjørn-Åge Veivåg(medal).Regards,Klausodfjell quarterly 29
