(Philadelphia, PA) HEC has opened an office at Philly Shipyard (formerly APSI) to provide the owner’s supervision staff for the (4) tankers under construction for the Kinder Morgan subsidiary American Petroleum Tankers (APT-KM). The HEC office will provide all the inspectors including steel, coating and machinery for the project, which will last until the end of 2017.

HEC will also be providing technical support to APT-KM throughout the duration of the project for design and construction issues that arise. This work follows on HEC’s previous site office at NASSCO shipyard for the (5) State Class tankers now operated by APT-KM.
