Case Study

Sunoco Inc

“It has been a pleasure working with RightShip staff. They have been accommodating in meeting our needs and responding appropriately to the few problems that have occurred. The RightShip hosted online vetting system provides global 24x7 access to a vast database of information regarding vessels we may consider for charter, helping support Sunoco’s commitment to safe, reliable and environmentally sound waterborne transport.”
Harold Mathues - IT Manager, Sunoco Refining and Supply Division


Sunoco has been a customer of RightShip’s hosted online vetting system solution since August 2004. Sunoco imports its entire waterborne diet of crude oil in vessels from its suppliers, primarily in West Africa, and ships significant volumes of finished petroleum and petrochemical products to customers by vessel and barge.

Harold Mathues said that Sunoco wanted an alternative to the time-consuming and expensive task of keeping their custom vetting system up to date. A RightShip hosted online system, tailored to their specific requirements, was the best commercial alternative. It was online within a few months of Sunoco deciding on this solution, and vets about 1000 vessels and barges a year.

Sunoco, Inc., headquartered in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, is one of the largest independent refiner-marketers of petroleum and petrochemical products in the United States with 900 000 barrels per day of refining capacity.
