Where the Baltic Never Freezes: ORCA Crew Services in Klaipėda
In the far north-east corner of the Baltic Sea lies a port that refuses to sleep in winter. While ice locks most eastern harbors for months, Klaipėda stays open year-round, the northernmost ice-free gateway on the continent’s eastern coast. Ships of every size glide in and out 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, because here the sea never surrenders to the cold.
This is home to ORCA Crew Services’ largest office: a modern, bustling hub of more than 50 specialists, all dedicated to one mission: placing the best Lithuanian seafarers on the world’s most demanding vessels.
Klaipėda is more than a port; it is Lithuania’s beating maritime heart. A true multimodal powerhouse, it welds together sea, road, and rail into a single, seamless corridor between East and West. Giant container ships, heavy-lift vessels, and ultra-modern offshore units up to 400 metres long tie up alongside quays served by fourteen major stevedoring, ship-repair, and shipbuilding companies. Whatever the sea demands, Klaipėda delivers.
From this dynamic city, ORCA Crew Services sends hundreds of highly qualified Lithuanian officers and ratings around the globe. You will find them on sophisticated offshore construction vessels in the North Sea, on trailing suction hopper dredgers reshaping coastlines from Singapore to Suez, and on powerful harbour tugs and workboats keeping trade flowing in every corner of the world.
What sets the Lithuanian crews apart is not just their skill, but the system that stands behind them. Inside ORCA’s Klaipėda headquarters is a complete in-house payroll department that handles every detail of A1 forms and social security compliance with Baltic precision. Next door sits the company’s own training centre: classrooms, simulators, and workshops where the next generation of captains, engineers, and specialist crew hone their craft to the highest international standards.
For Lithuanian seafarers, the journey nearly always begins here: on the windswept Curonian coast, where the Baltic stays forever open, and where ORCA Crew Services turns local talent into global excellence, one voyage at a time.
