Houston-based T&T Bisso has announced an exclusive cooperative services agreement with Foss Maritime Company, based in Seattle.
"Foss's extensive network of sister companies and partners positioned in North America and around the world will compliment T&T Bisso's global strategies in providing professional, safe and results-oriented services conducted on or around the water," said Tim Dickensheets, Director of vessel response services for T&T Bisso.
The company will use several Foss' facilities throughout North America to position lightering and marine fire-fighting packages as part of the company's strategy to comply with the United States Coast Guard salvage and marine fire-fighting regulations.
"Combined with experienced staff, continued training and periodic exercises, these operational hubs provide outstanding emergency response capabilities to our clients," Mr Dickensheets said.
T&T Bisso is also working with Foss to revise the company's vessel response plans, listing T&T Bisso as the primary provider to meet the salvage and marine fire-fighting services requirements under the new regulations.
