Canship owned and managed a range of marine vessels operating worldwide, and later expanded into naval architecture and design and marine consulting services. In 1995, Canship partnered with JJ Ugland A/S of Norway to form Canship Ugland Limited, as owner/operator of the largest and most sophisticated ships in Canada which carried out the transportation of crude oil from offshore oil fields off Canada’s east coast. In late 2007, Sid, as managing partner of South Coast Partners, led the acquisition of Oceanex Income Fund, then owners of Oceanex Inc., an intermodal transportation provider operating in Eastern Canada. Today, Sid serves as Executive Chairman of Oceanex Inc.
