In the maritime industry, a vessel’s success depends not just on its cargo or route, but on the people who keep it running—your crew. At STA Shipping (Sarana Trans Asia) in Batam, Indonesia, we understand that supporting your crew is just as important as managing your vessel’s operations. That’s why we’ve made it our mission to provide people-first services that ensure your crew’s needs are met with care, efficiency, and professionalism.
Crew Support: More Than Just Logistics
When your vessel arrives in Batam, your crew deserves more than just the basics—they need a partner who can handle everything from arrival clearances to their well-being on the ground. At STA Shipping, we offer comprehensive crew manning services, ensuring smooth transitions during port calls. Whether it’s arranging transportation, coordinating medical check-ups, or facilitating crew changes, we take care of the details so your team can focus on their duties.
Our commitment to crew support goes beyond logistics. In the event of an emergency, our medical evacuation (MEDIVAC) services provide rapid response to ensure your crew members receive the care they need. For example, during a recent port call at Port Batu Ampar, Batam, our team at PT. Sarana Trans Asia arranged urgent medical support for a crew member, ensuring they were safely transported to a nearby facility without delay.
A Safe and Efficient Environment for Your Team
Batam’s proximity to Singapore—just 20 miles away—makes it a strategic stop for vessels, but it’s our dedication to safety that sets us apart. We adhere to strict Health, Safety, and Environment (HSE) standards in all our operations, creating a secure environment for your crew. From ship-to-ship transhipment to dry-docking, every service we provide is designed to minimize risks and ensure compliance with international regulations.
Our 24/7 operations mean we’re always available to support your crew, no matter the time of day. Whether they need provisions through our ship chandler services or assistance with customs documentation, our team is on hand to make their time in Batam as smooth as possible. Clients like Pertamina Trans Kontinental and Musim Mas Group trust us to handle their crew’s needs with the same care we apply to their vessels.
Building Trust Through Care and Integrity
At STA Shipping, we believe that caring for your crew is a reflection of our broader commitment to integrity. We uphold the highest standards of corporate ethics and financial transparency, ensuring that every interaction with us is built on trust. By prioritizing your crew’s well-being, we aim to foster long-term partnerships that go beyond a single port call.
