Arctic Directory: Crowley’s West Coast Harbor operations recognized

Crowley Maritime Corp. said June 21 that in recognition of its safe harbor ship assist and tanker escort operations on the West Coast, Tesoro Maritime Co. recently honored Crowley’s harbor services team with safe work awards — one for each of the past four years — during a ceremony in Crowley’s Seattle office.

“It means a lot to all of us at Crowley — those at sea and ashore — to receive this recognition from Tesoro for our safe operations through the years. Our crews and shoreside employees ensure safe vessel operations through extensive training and environmentally sound practices,” said Scott Hoggarth, general manager of harbor ship assist and tanker escort services “To be recognized by a significant petroleum transportation company, and valued Crowley customer, is very rewarding.”

“Our relationship with Crowley is extensive and important to Tesoro,” said Captain Tim Plummer, vice president of Tesoro Maritime. “It’s a pleasure to see firsthand and also recognize the success of Crowley’s focus on safety and the environment.”

Crowley has a long history of providing harbor ship assist and escort services to Tesoro tankers transiting U.S. West Coast ports and has been Tesoro’s primary tug provider since 2007.
