Suttons Wins New National Contract With Haltermann Carless

Suttons Tankers has won a significant new contract with a leading global provider of high-value specialty hydrocarbon solutions, Haltermann Carless.

The innovative logistics and supply chain business, part of global firm Suttons Group, will be transporting gas condensate from Spirit Energy’s Barrow Gas Terminal in Cumbria to Haltermann Carless in Harwich.

Suttons are already a trusted partner of Haltermann Carless and have proven again that they can provide the scale and expertise needed for the desired solution.

Suttons advised Spirit Energy on best practice with regards to vehicle equipment and specification. With DGSA qualified experts within the business such as SSHEQ Manager Dave Ashton and Fleet Engineer Steve Eggleston, Suttons were able to support in the writing of procedures and consulting with engineers to ensure a safe working environment for appropriate road loading.

Suttons’ network of strategic geographical depot locations supported a solution of inter depot night trunking, minimising the requirement for resources while maximising the use of equipment and speed of delivery.

Michael Cundy, Managing Director, Suttons Tankers said:

“We look forward to strengthening our relationship with Haltermann Carless by providing them with an efficient and cost-reducing delivery solution.
