Description

Foss operates domestically and internationally, and has the capability to provide turn-key solutions to our customers. Our in-house engineering group, experienced operations personnel, world class vessel crews and seasoned management teams work to develop an alliance with our customers to provide an effective and safe execution plan for the project at hand.

Foss has provided safe and reliable pilot launch services to the Columbia River Bar Pilots and River Pilots for over 60 years.

This complex support network of dedicated crews was developed in conjunction with the refinery, the offshore terminal and lightering operations teams. Together we provide an environment and culture where safety programs and partnerships are fostered and perfected.

Our safety culture has now progressed to the point where we are tracking our incident free time in months, not days. We provide frequent reports on the ever-growing number of Job Safety Analyses, Near Misses and Safety Observations that are being reported every day. We have multiple Regional Safety Committees that provide another venue to support our push to zero initiatives, and we continually review and discuss notable near misses and observations, safety alerts and safety bulletins.
