2025 Wrapped: Defining Agility Through Disruption

The year 2025 was defined by unprecedented global turbulence. From shifts in leadership and the persistent waves of geopolitical conflicts to the complex impact of new tariffs and sanctions, the commercial shipping industry faced a demanding operating environment.

Yet, challenging times create the highest need for intelligent solutions. At Seven Oceans, 2025 was a year of accelerated innovation and strategic expansion, proving that agility, not stability, is the ultimate competitive advantage.

Here is a look at the major milestones that defined our year, driven by our commitment to empowering commercial maritime teams globally.

🗽Innovation & Product Breakthroughs

The Launch of Seven Oceans PreFix (SOPF)

Faced with mounting pressure to deliver results and heightened risks from the evolving geopolitical landscape, we prioritised the urgent need for rapid, high-velocity decision-making. We successfully launched SOPF, our dedicated, hyper-efficient chartering estimation tool.

SOPF is designed to deliver reliable chartering estimates and seamlessly integrate them into post-fixture operations (in SOC) in seconds, thereby fundamentally enhancing the speed of commercial decision-making.

Setting the Algorithm Standard

We are proud to have grown our long-term partnership with NavApi to integrate shipping's first internally developed, novel AI satellite algorithms for global live vessel data and more. This groundbreaking development pushes the boundaries of predictive analytics and real-time data access within the industry, ensuring our clients operate with the most accurate and forward-looking data available.

📈 Strategic Growth & Market Expansion

2025 Global Expansion

Seven Oceans experienced sustained growth in 2025, expanding its business by 200% YOY. This momentum is projected to continue, anticipating a lucrative Q1 2026 performance. This promising and continued linear growth confirms our market expansion push driven directly from the boardroom.

EMEA Commercial Depth

Recognising the critical importance of regional insight, we significantly expanded our EMEA commercial team function, bringing in star business team members. This strategic investment immediately paid off, with a massive 75% of our total interest and growth originating from the EMEA market this year.

Collaborative Ecosystem Development

Seven Oceans has reinforced its standing as the primary operational motherboard for maritime commercial trade. Our growing influence is quantified by the following achievements:

• Exploring north of 23 incoming international partnerships with key commercial entities, which effectively broadened our ecosystem's scope and client value proposition.

• Successfully deploying 12 distinct features and integration pilots with existing clients, proving the quantifiable benefits of deep integration and validating our commitment to unified, continuous delivery on a single platform.

✅ Outlook 2026: The Market Landscape

The operational turbulence witnessed in 2025 has strongly validated the necessity for solutions that deliver clarity and control in periods of market volatility. The combined success of our team and the demonstrable adoption of innovations like SOPF confirm that data-driven commercial intelligence is no longer an optional differentiator; it is now a core functional prerequisite.

Crucially, 2025 marked a deep propulsion into GenAI research at Seven Oceans. The results of this significant research investment will begin to strategically flourish throughout 2026, directly impacting client capability.

Our product suite and roadmap for 2026 will heavily reflect this innovation, maintaining a strong focus on seamlessly connecting commercial and operational workflows.

We remain fully committed to our innovation pipeline. We anticipate continued linear growth and strategic market penetration, ensuring that our clients are optimally positioned to not only navigate but master the competitive landscape in 2026.
