History
In 2010, Charles King, an independent petroleum loss control contractor, was working with a client facing several challenges at a terminal in Houston, TX:
- compensating for complicated shore line adjustments
- managing the onboard distribution of unique cargos to meet blend specifications (on a per vessel tank basis)
- streamlining operations to minimize delays to the terminal
Charles innovated effective solutions, evolving as the client’s requirements became more complex. The results of his success led to him forming PetroCargo LLC in 2012 to keep up with the demand for his services. The company and its reputation grew quickly.
In January 2015, Charles formed Vessel Blenders LLC, choosing a name more directly reflecting the company’s unique area of expertise – load planning and supervision for onboard blended petroleum cargos on tanker vessels.
