STS Operations
Smith Imossi is licensed by the Gibraltar Port Authority for STS operations carried out in the western anchorage.
In partnership with Fendercare marine, transfers of black, clean and LNG products are undertaken under the STS code of practice which regulated by the Gibraltar Port Authority.
Operations are also carried out in international waters offshore Ceuta under the direct supervision of Fendercares experienced mooring masters.
STS equipment is held at both ports for safe & timely mobilisations.
Cruise Liners
Given Gibraltar’s location and being outside the EU Customs Union, we are a prime port for the cruising industry.
Our highly knowledgeable staff is well versed with all formalities and requirements pertaining to this sector.
Offport Limits
The ship is able to save time and money by remaining off shore instead of entering the port. Up to 12 crew members as well as stores and spares can be taken on board in any single operation, but a ship can be supplied by more than one vessel.
We can engage our service launch to carry out crew changes and to deliver stores, spare parts, mail, charts and other essential items while the ship is under way in a safe and cost efficient manner There are two specified off-limits’ areas which have been chosen to minimize interference with regular shipping traffic.
