At the new Tampa facility, "Technicians will be on call twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week," says Herbert Roeser, chairman and owner of TMPS. "We have always had people on call at all hours, but they were stationed on the West Coast." The decision to expand came as a result of customer demand. "We have been servicing more and more vessels in the Gulf area, and it was time to set up shop there."
TMPS has found a location in Tampa and plans to start operating there by the end of next month. "We can service most makes and types of diesel engines, including medium-speed and slow-speed engines for the marine industry and for diesel power plants," says Shane Roeser (son of Herbert Roeser), TMPS's Vice President. "We are one of the world's few service facilities that offers this range of experience."

* Technical management of fleet of fishing vessels operating out of Dutch Harbor, Alaska.

* Long term maintenance program for Sea-Land's D-9 vessels, including regular scheduled main engine overhauls and planned maintenance on the Daihatsu generator engines through parts exchange and rotation program.
"We're excited about providing our expertise to the marine operators and owners in the Gulf area," says Herbert Roeser.
