Janek Ekeli
Bunker Trader
I was born in Oslo, Norway, and have also been fortunate enough to have lived in Paris, London, Southampton, East-Timor and Dubai. During the last year of my Bachelor in Business Administration where I specialized in Shipping Management, I started working part-time at a large Norwegian ship-owner in Oslo. Thereafter, I transferred to their office in England to continue working part-time as I undertook my MSc in Maritime Business. I joined Dan-Bunkering Dubai in September 2017 to work closer with my customers and forge my own value-providing relationships amongst a highly driven set of colleagues. I relish the fast-paced nature of the shipping and oil industry and appreciate the various cultures and personalities you get to experience working in it. I joined the office in Stamford, CT, to support our customers in navigating their requirements for the Americas (May 2019). I speak English and Norwegian fluently, and can speak French in light conversation. I am a big fan of boxing/MMA and enjoy dining out with friends.
