Knights MPR extends its services for a third year with Lubmarine to help boost the company’s global position in marine lubricants.

Knights MPR – a UK-based communications and PR agency – has secured a third year contract for the marine lubricants division of TotalEnergies in Paris, France, one of the world’s largest major clean energy operators.

Knights Media & Public Relations (Knights MPR) continues to provide public relations and communications expertise globally for Lubmarine.

Strengthening the agency’s marine and energy credentials further, Knights MPR’s remit will span both digital and traditional media with content creation and seeding via its in-house support.

Founder and CEO, Jason Knights, says: “We are delighted to be selected by Lubmarine for a third year contract for the marine lubricants division of the energy major. The business is making a big difference to the shipping and energy industries for cleaner and sustainable marine lubricants.”

Knights MPR, which specialises in taking a ‘journalist’s eye view’ of client challenges, has close links in both the shipping and energy sectors having had experience across the entire supply chain.

With a wealth of experience in shipping, maritime and energy, this latest contract is the perfect complement to Knights MPR’s existing portfolio of non-competing clients.

“Lubmarine is a front-of-mind globally recognised industry name and being part of their team and contributing to their growth journey in 2022 will be a real pleasure,” says Knights. “It just goes to show how a small UK agency that is dynamic and creative can win work on an international stage.”

As Lubmarine prepares for their next phase of growth, Knights MPR believes the time is right for TotalEnergies to take its brand building, external communications, PR activities and event programme to the ‘next level’.

“The power of our approach helps companies to identify, clarify and shape their business purpose, and together with TotalEnergies we are creating a communications-led approach that gains competitive advantage and boosts the bottom line. The benefits are not just commercial. Our expertise helps companies like Lubmarine accelerate market engagement, inspire innovation, and build customer and brand loyalty.”

Lubmarine has delivered marine lubricants and services since 1952, and today cover more than 7,000 vessels and 1,000 ports, providing a pioneering range of marine oils, greases and innovative solutions to the shipping and power plant industry.
