When it comes to maritime operations, every vessel owner and operator seeks a partner they can rely on—one that understands the complexities of port calls, prioritizes safety, and delivers efficiency without compromise. At STA Shipping (Sarana Trans Asia), we’ve built our reputation in Batam, Indonesia, as a shipping agency that goes beyond the basics, offering a seamless experience for vessels from around the world.
A Strategic Hub for Global Maritime Operations
Located just 20 miles from Singapore, Batam is a gateway to one of the world’s busiest shipping routes. This strategic position makes it an ideal stop for vessels needing cost-efficient port services, crewing, repairs, and more. At STA Shipping, we leverage Batam’s unique location to provide fast, reliable solutions for our clients. Whether your vessel is docking for a routine port call, a ship-to-ship transfer, or a dry-docking project, our team is equipped to handle every detail with precision.
Comprehensive Services with a Focus on Integrity
What sets STA Shipping apart is our commitment to doing things the right way. We operate 24/7, ensuring that your vessel’s needs are met at any time of day. From arrival and departure clearances to crew manning, husbandry services, and medical evacuations (MEDIVAC), we cover the full spectrum of maritime support. Our expertise also extends to innovative solutions like weather routing and maritime security, helping you navigate challenges with confidence.
Integrity is at the heart of everything we do. We adhere strictly to Health, Safety, and Environment (HSE) standards, ensuring that every operation is conducted responsibly. For us, this isn’t just about compliance—it’s about building trust with our clients, many of whom, like Karadeniz Holding and Pertamina Trans Kontinental, rely on us for their most critical operations.
Tailored Solutions for Every Vessel
No two vessels are the same, and neither are their needs. That’s why we take a tailored approach to every project. For example, when the Karadeniz Powership Ersa Sultan docked at ASL Batam, our team coordinated every aspect of the operation, from port captain support to logistics, ensuring a smooth and efficient process. Similarly, during a ship-to-ship transfer at Port Batu Ampar, we managed all administrative and safety requirements, allowing the operation to proceed without a hitch.
Our goal is simple: to make your port call as efficient and stress-free as possible. We stay ahead of the curve by keeping up with market intelligence, new port developments, and storage facilities, ensuring that we can meet your needs today and anticipate your requirements for tomorrow.
