When it comes to lightering, you need a crew with incredible expertise and dedication to superior performance. SPT's Fleet Management team prides itself on more than 115 years of experience with insight into industry changes and best practices. All of SPT's Fleet Management personnel have either served as deck officers or marine engineers aboard deep draft vessels of all types. We capitalize on this experience by providing simulator training to our LSV mates, mooring masters and captains to develop the best trained mariners in the industry.

Our Fleet Management team brings more than just longevity. Our proven systems and processes govern daily operations of hard assets and personnel. From quality systems to crew management, we work to optimize the operational efficiency of our mooring masters, lightering support vessels and tankers. Our team leads the trade by bringing innovation to the table. For instance, SPT's Fleet Management team developed the portable chocks that are now industry standard. Our leaders are also developing a mechanically operated quick-release coupler that offers emergency separation without the risk of a dangerous spill.

Safety matters. SPT's Fleet Management Team conducts regular testing on equipment to comply with company policy and federal law, but equally important, to serve our customers and environment. By adhering to a strict vetting process, we ensure we lighter vessels in compliance with the highest standard of performance.
