Background

About Patrick van Troost

I am a highly experienced Master Mariner with a broad international track record in maritime, offshore, dredging, and towage operations. Over the past 30+ years, I’ve worked on a wide variety of vessels, from high-capacity trailing suction hopper dredgers to 6th generation drillships and advanced ASD tugs. I hold a Master All Ships CoC (II/2), and have served in senior positions for Boluda, Ocean Rig, Noble Drilling, Van Oord, Boskalis, Heerema, and others. My strengths lie in vessel handling, team leadership, deck and logistical operations, ISPS compliance, and safety management. I’ve operated globally — including Brazil, Singapore, the Gulf of Mexico, North Sea, and West Africa — and thrive in multicultural teams. I am always open to challenging projects or leadership roles in the maritime or offshore sectors.
