Mikhail Elfimov

Experienced Chief Officer with over 15 years in the maritime industry, primarily on product tankers. Since 2018, I have been leading cargo operations and navigation watch duties, including complex procedures such as COW (Crude Oil Washing), hose handling, and STS operations near buoys. I hold all mandatory STCW certifications and am now actively transitioning into the offshore sector — particularly interested in FPSOs and drilling platforms. My goal is to bring my deep understanding of tanker operations into the offshore environment, and I’m open to global opportunities. I value safety, precision, and leadership in high-pressure situations. I am fluent in English and comfortable operating in multicultural, international teams.
