Terminal Towage

LNG Terminal

Servicing Egypt's first LNG terminal, First Suez Marine operates 3 purpose built, 5,600bhp ASD tugs that provide dedicated escort and berthing services to some of the largest LNG vessels in the world. In preparing for successful execution of this work, First Suez Marine designed and conducted in depth training modules that took into account the unique challenges associated with such large ships approaching a terminal in the extremely harsh and ecologically sensitive environment of the Bay of Fundy. These training modules allowed our crews to understand the unique challenges this terminal poses while also understanding how to leverage the unique advantages and features of the custom built tugs.

Oil Terminal                                        

A large focus for our Port Services Business is in providing dedicated escort and berthing services for Oil Terminals in the ports where we operate. We work closely and in some cases in an integrated fashion with local oil spill response agencies to ensure the highest level of preparation and responsiveness to mitigate any risk to the environment. A commitment to continuous improvement defines our business culture at First Suez Marine and we have employed our six sigma trained green belts to develop fuel optimization programs that allow us to offer our customers the lowest possible cost of tug services.

Single Buoy Mooring

First Suez Marine has provided towage support at Single Buoy Moorings since 1961, and typically has a tug continuously assisting VLCC tankers while they discharge their cargoes for periods in excess of 36-48 hours at a time. As one of the largest deep water ports in the Western Hemisphere, Canaport in Saint John, New Brunswick sees some of the largest ships come to unload their cargoes year round through extreme weather and tides. First Suez Marine takes pride in everything we do, including our vessel maintenance program, which ensures our vessels are always ready to work and never interrupted by a breakdown.
