Among those who ensure the smooth and safe operation of maritime transport, a special place is occupied by the captain's assistant. This is a specialist who is responsible for navigation, coordinates the actions of the team, monitors compliance with international standards and ensures the well-coordinated work of the crew at each stage of the voyage.
The oil tanker Taraz was put into operation in December 2023. During the first year of service, the vessel successfully transported 678 thousand tons of cargo across the Caspian Sea. This result was made possible thanks to the well-coordinated work of the team and the professionalism of each crew member.
The mate is the captain's right hand and a key figure on board. He organizes navigation activities, supervises cargo operations, is responsible for the safety of the vessel and maintains the necessary documentation. In addition, he participates in the training of junior crew members and ensures compliance with maritime discipline.
The job of a captain's mate requires high responsibility, excellent training and confidence in every decision. It is not just a profession, but a way of life based on precision, endurance and the ability to work in a team.
In the Year of Working Professions, we pay tribute to people who choose a difficult but important path. The assistant captain of the tanker "Taraz" is a shining example of a true professional, thanks to whom the Russian fleet is developing and confidently moving forward.
