ELI Announces Expanded Marine Transportation Services

Since 1997 Energy Logistics, Inc. (ELI) has provided various marine transportation services out of its shorebase facilities in Venice, Morgan City and Cameron, LA. These services include lump sum cargo deliveries on dedicated vessels or economic shared deliveries both on a regularly scheduled or "ad-hoc" basis. ELI provides these services on vessels it has under direct charter or chartered by others but managed by ELI under agreements that allow us to share out surplus time or space. For the past two years, ELI’s marine services have been provided by 130-135 ft. crewboats and 110-125 ft. utility vessels and primarily focused on regularly scheduled production deliveries or "hot-shot" runs to support drilling. ELI’s customers pay only for the transportation they need when they need it and have realized significant cost savings compared to more traditional time chartering with its inherent inefficiencies. Customers include Shell, Burlington, Spirit Energy, BP Vastar, Anadarko/UPR, Ocean Energy, Chevron-Texaco, Grasso Production, ExxonMobil, et al.

Pricing for ELI’s delivery services will be dependent on delivery location, capacities required and degree of advance scheduling and will be generally on a lump sum basis, fuel and lube inclusive. Deliveries requiring only portions of available capacity thereby allowing space to be shared with others will result in significantly reduced delivery costs as will our discounts for advance scheduling and loadout at ELI’s facility. Details regarding our delivery services may be seen in the Marine Transportation portion of our Website at www.energylogistics.com. This site also contains information on our advanced Logistics Support System (LSS) which allows ELI to develop more efficient vessel routes and schedules and facilitates material tracking with its automated manifesting features.

With ELI’s marine delivery services you pay only for the transportation you need when you need it and will not have the operating and administrative burdens associated with normal time chartering. We can provide fixed pricing for deliveries and invoice by property or rig on a monthly basis. Please give us a call (Butch Guidry at 337-855-4244 or Eric Smith at 337-406-8300 or ELI’s Fleet Coordinator at 504-385-5596) to learn more and to obtain firm price quotations for dedicated or even more economic deck cargo, fuel, water deliveries within the capabilities of our utility and crewboat fleet .
