ATC LINE

ATC believes actions make the difference, and applies this philosophy to ensure all personnel are properly trained and that their roles and responsibilities are clearly defined. It is this training and definition that leads to the right action being taken at the right time.The business culture of ATC is based on “performance contracts” that establish clear and specific goals and objectives – for the company, for the ships, and for individuals. Performance is then measured against the attainment of these goals and objectives. From this simple premise, a mighty tide of focused energy has been set in motion. This energy emanates from the men and women of ATC who safely operate the ships, from the shore staff who manage and measure the business, and from the leadership who set the safety and environmental performance targets as the highest priority of the company. In 2004, the United States Coast Guard recognized ATC’s outstanding performance by awarding the company the Benkert “Osprey” Gold Award. This award was given in recognition of “…outstanding achievement in marine environmental protection that goes beyond mere compliance with industrial and regulatory standards”. The “Osprey” is the highest environmental award given by the Coast Guard.
Following this recognition, In March of 2006, the Alaska State Legislature honored ATC by presenting Anil Mathur, President and CEO with a legislative citation. This citation recognized ATC’s efforts to achieve the highest levels of safety and environmental performance while carrying Alaska North Slope crude oil from Valdez, Alaska to refineries in Washington, California and Hawaii. ATC was noted as having a record that is unsurpassed in the industry.
