We are diverse group of individuals recognized internationally for our customer focus and problem-solving skills.

We are innovative. The people at Lightering LLC wrote the book on STS Transfers, introduced toggle unmooring pins and the Double-D mooring tails. We manage STS risks through agile, innovative, simple, and low-cost solutions.

We are consistent. Regardless of location, Lightering LLC provides the same personnel and equipment used in our California and US Gulf operations. POACs, MMAs, and top-of-the-line equipment are employed at all locations.

We are much more than a “fender company”.
