Symon Appointed New

Director Of Tankers

At Stolt-Nielsen

Stanley Symon

Stanley Symon has been named director of tankers at Stolt-

Nielsen Inc, Greenwich, Conn., to succeed Per Heidenreich, accord- ing to an announcement by Jacob

Stolt-Nielsen Jr., chairman of

Stolt Tankers and Terminals. Mr.

Heidenreich is leaving the compa- ny to pursue other business inter- ests.

Mr. Symon has 30 years of expe- rience in the shipping industry. He began his seafaring career as an engineering cadet with BP, rising to chief engineer. In 1969, he was as- signed to a technical position ashore with BP, and in 1974 transferred to the Commercial Division, subse- quently becoming trade manager of

BP Shipping in London.

In 1977, when the Stolt-Nielsen/

BP Shipping Limited agreement was made, Mr. Symon was second- ed to Stolt-Nielsen Inc. in Green- wich. Instead of returning to Eng- land when the secondment term was over, he decided to take up perma- nent employment with Stolt-Niel- sen, first as manager of the Ship

Management Department, and now as manager of the entire tanker business.

Mr. Symon is a chartered marine engineer, a fellow of the Institute of

Marine Engineers, and a fellow of the Institute of Chartered Ship brokers. He has served as chairman of the board of the Liberian Ship- owners' Council, and remains a member of the board. He also serves on Lloyd's Register North American

Committee.

SOFEC Awarded NavSea

Contract For Offshore

Mooring Terminal

SOFEC, Inc. of Houston has re- ceived a contract from the Naval

Sea Systems Command for the con- struction, testing, and sea trials of a rapid deployment single anchor leg mooring terminal known by the trade name RA-DE SALM™. The unit will moor and unload tankers of up to 70,000 dwt in the open sea, and will allow the prompt and effi- cient delivery of fuel products for shore-based military equipment.

The entire system is designed to be deployed and operational within 48 hours of its arrival at site. Installa- tion can be accomplished with a minimum of manpower and equip- ment.

The RA-DE SALM is similar to other commercial systems designed and constructed by SOFEC. It may be delivered to site by towing or it may be carried on the deck of a ship in a special launching frame. The unit utilizes preplaced solid ballast in the mooring base, and will func- tion in a wide range of seafloor con- ditions ranging from soft mud to firm sand or coral.

The Navy's unit is scheduled for delivery in mid-1985.
