PSA Marine acquires port services company

Tramarsa Flota and its subsidiaries have been acquired from Grupo Romero. Headquartered in Lima, Tramarsa Flota offers towage, pilotage, launch boat and offshore services in 10 major ports along the Peruvian coastline.

“We are delighted to welcome Tramarsa Flota to our PSA Marine global family. This strategic move will strengthen our international towage and pilotage network,” said Peter Chew, managing director of PSA Marine.

Tramarsa Flota owns 45 vessels, including 17 tugs, 23 launches and five support vessels for diving activities and other marine services. It is managed by a team of over 600 people.

“My team and I are excited to be part of the PSA Marine global family. We are committed to deliver only the best and maintain a strong foothold in our maritime operations along the Peruvian coastline,” said Enrique Andres Tarazona Soria, managing director of Tramarsa Flota. “I will continue to lead Tramarsa Flota and would like to thank the Maritime Authority, the National Port Authority, port community, staff, customers, and key stakeholders for their continued support.”

With the acquisition of Tramarsa Flota, PSA Marine now operates in over seven countries globally, with a strong fleet of more than 100 harbour crafts and 300 harbour pilots.
