Truman

Since the opening of the Panama Canal in 1914, virtually all ships have been constructed to fit within its locks. Conventional wisdom favored flexibility, so ships were never more than 91 feet wide or 1,000 feet long. And because these "Panamax" ships could transit the canal, they could be deployed in either the Atlantic or Pacific as market conditions changed

Jefferson

Four new Pacesetter-class vessels, including the President Jefferson, were built between 1973 and 1974. They were the first APL vessels designed to carry containers exclusively. This shift from a mix of passenger and cargo (cargoliners) to cellularized containerships signified APL’s strong commitment to containerization and intermodalism

Cleveland

After World War II, a new generation of Americans was eager to travel in style. In response, APL launched the Presidents Cleveland and Wilson, in 1947. Designed to carry 550 passengers and a crew of 352, the ships were advertised as "your American hotel abroad.”

Celebrating the Ships that Made History

From the first all water voyage connecting the U.S. east and west coasts in 1848, to the new generation 10,000-TEU mega ships ordered for 2011 delivery, APL has been a pioneer in designing vessels that push new boundaries both technologically and geographically. Today, more than 100 vessels on every major trade route connect 25,000 service points all seven continents. Here is a short biography of some vessels

ATC Reaches Another Safety Milestone!

Through April of 2008, ATC ships have safely and efficiently carried over 1,103 million barrels of crude oil and our workforce has completed over 12 million man-hours without anyone being so hurt that they were unable to return to work the next day (lost time injury). No tanker company in the world has ever achieved this safety record.

While such safety statistics are one way to measure performance, they cannot possibly convey what makes ATC different from other shipping companies. As one ATC Captain has said;

“…our main achievement is not the statistic but what we have collectively achieved in our hearts and our minds”

The employees of ATC are committed to mitigating the risks we face every day, one day at a time, one job at a time. Our goal is an entire generation of seafarers spending their entire working lives without an injury, whilst earning a decent living for their families and loved ones. With over 12 million man-hours and over six years without a lost time injury, we’re off to a good start in realizing this goal.
