SPT has successfully completed their first support operation at their new Bahamas location. This operation was a prime example of the company’s ability to react quickly and meet the needs of their customers. From gaining the approval of the Bahamas authorities, finding a suitable support craft with a well-established local operator and to transporting the equipment with a tight deadline to accommodate the vessels involved.

SPT Receives the Devlin Award for Safety Excellence

Fri, 10 Jun 2011 13:52:53 GMT

SPT continues to set new records for our safety performance. On June 2^nd, four Lightering Support Vessels received the prestigious Devlin Award issued by the Chamber of Shipping of America. Devlin Award Certificates are awarded to all self-propelled merchant vessels that have operated for two full years or more without a crew member losing a full turn at watch because of an occupational injury. Three levels of achievement are recognized: a basic two-year award; a three year award; and a four-year award. A special award is given annually to ships with five or more years of accident-free operation. To qualify for a Devlin Award Certificate, a vessel must be in operation with a full crew. Days in protracted lay-up resulting in crew reduction are not considered days in operation.

The vessels receiving the award were the SPT Protector, SPT Defender, SPT Guardian and SPT Vigilance.

This recognition is the result of the hard work and dedication of all of our offshore and shore-side support staff. I thank each and every one of the team for your contribution to our continued success in safety performance. With your help and support we can look forward to celebrating many more successes.
