Водный транспорт Юга России 2019

END-TO-END FLEET SERVICING
For more than ten years OOO
Tornado has been piloting
vessels on the sea and inland
waterways from the Kerch Strait to
Rostov-on-Don and Azov. And also
along the rivers Don, Volga, Kama.
All these years, the company has
been a reliable partner for participants
in sea and river transport.
The company is a member of the
national association of pilotage
organizations, a non-profit partnership
uniting non-state firms
operating in the market for these
services. It is also a member of the
non-profit partnership Water
Transport of the Don.
The team employs 22 highly
skilled pilots who can perform
their responsibilities both at sea
and on inland waterways. Specialists
of water transport know that
pilotage on the river is much more
complicated than that one on the
sea. And here, in the south of Russia,
the pilots of OOO Tornado are
second to none. Almost all pilots
of OOO Tornado began their work
on the river. And only having
gained some experience, having
worked for at least five years as
captains or foremen of ships, they
studied and received certificates
of pilots. More than half of the
team have two specialized educations.
All pilots are fluent in English.
Every five years, the pilotage
team undergoes re-certification
and receives attestation certificates
with a permit to work.
Every year OOO Tornado increases
the number of pilotage.
Thus, in 2017 there were 14,576,
and for nine months of this year
there have already been 14,126.
One of the distinctive peculiarities
of the company, as its partners
note, is the ability to work with the
optimal result. So, if the flow of vessels
with cargo increases, OOO Tornado
organizes round-the-clock
watch of pilots in order to eliminate
the delay of vessels in the port.
A significant increase in the intensity
of the movement of vessels
in the Azov-Don district, the
drift of rolls in the sea of ​Don-Donets,
Azov and Elizavetinskiy create
certain difficulties in the work
of pilots. It creates a very difficult
and often emergency situation for
escorting vessels. Captains, especially
those who came to our region
for the first time, cannot do
without the help of an experienced
pilot. The pilots of OOO Tornado
are fluent in this. We should not
forget about such a feature of navigation
on the Upper and Lower
Don: it is necessary to take into
account when the pilotage is carried
out which wind is blowing:
when lowering, water rises significantly,
and if the upper wind
blows, the water level drops
sharply. All these features are well
known to pilots of OOO Tornado,
which allows ships to navigate
without a trouble.
Efficiency, flexibility in terms of
pricing, trouble-free operation allows
to acquire permanent partners,
to expand the range of customers.
OOO Tornado is famous not only
for its pilots. Other professionals
show high results, as well. The Director
General was awarded the title
of The Best Transport Worker of
the Don. Participating in the federal
competition, the company’s chief
accountant became the accountant
of the year. The members of
the team were repeatedly awarded
with letters of appreciation by the
harbor master for providing quality
services.
