G.A. Watkins To Head

Global Transport's

International Division

Global Transport Organisation,

San Francisco, has formed a sep- arate division for international tug and barge transports which will be headed by G.A. Watkins, according to a recent announce- ment by Leo L. Collar, chairman of GTO's Management Committee.

GTO already has established a reputation as a worldwide transporter of offshore drilling rigs, mammoth modules, dredging equipment and other heavy-lift and outsized cargoes. "Though GTO pioneered many of the innovative techniques in ocean transport of heavy-lift car- go," said Mr. Collar, "we now find ourselves in a very compet- itive market for this type of work. Formation of the Ocean

Transport Division enables GTO to focus its resources on aggres- sive pursuit of more business in this market, which in turn will allow our continued advancement in modern transportation."

G.A. Watkins

Mr. Watkins has been appointed manager of the division with re- sponsibility for directing GTO's expanded marketing efforts and overall operations in international ocean transportation. He has been a long-time executive with

Crowley Maritime Corporation, and was initially involved with the formation of GTO several years ago.

The Ocean Transport Division will maintain its own marketing staff in San Francisco and utilize operational and technical person- nel, equipment, international of- fices and other resources of GTO and its member companies.

Member companies include

Crowley Maritime International, a subsidiary of Crowley Maritime

Corporation, San Francisco; Fed- eral Pacific Limited, a part of

Federal Commerce and Naviga- tion, Montreal; and Genstar Over- seas Limited, a division of Gen- star Limited, Montreal. The col- lective resources of these compa- nies make available over 200 oceangoing tugs, 400 barges, some 40 offices throughout the world, and a variety of skilled and expe- rienced cargo transport personnel.
