TANKER CREW SUPPLY

Tanker officers and ratings for crude, product and chemical tankers

AIELYM Maritime Group supplies shipowners and ship managers with officers and ratings for crude oil, product and chemical tankers. Every candidate's tanker endorsements and tanker sea service are verified before presentation, and you receive a shortlist within 24–72 hours.

Tanker ranks we supply

We supply complete tanker complements or individual vacancies, including the cargo-critical ranks that vetting inspectors look at first.

  • Master, Chief Officer, 2nd and 3rd Officer
  • Chief Engineer, 2nd, 3rd and 4th Engineer, ETO
  • Pumpman, Bosun, Able Seaman, Motorman / Oiler

Tanker endorsements verified

Officers for tanker service must hold the STCW certificates of proficiency for oil or chemical tanker cargo operations appropriate to their rank. We authenticate these certificates with the issuing administration and confirm that the stated tanker sea service is supported by records.

Crude, product and chemical tanker experience

We match candidates by the sector you operate in: Aframax, Suezmax and VLCC crude trades, refined product tankers, and chemical tankers carrying hazardous liquid cargoes.

Documentation ready for vetting

Tanker operators are judged on crew experience matrices during vetting inspections. We present each candidate with the certificates, sea service and references you need to keep your officer matrix within charterer requirements.

Five checks before a candidate reaches your desk

Every CV we forward has passed the same structured screening under our ISO 9001:2015 certified Quality Management System. You receive candidates with documents attached, not raw applications.

  • Sourcing and full document collection from our active crew pools
  • National licence and STCW certificate authentication with issuing administrations
  • Sea service records cross-checked, references requested from previous employers
  • Rank-specific professional interview, including English assessment
  • Final compliance review: medical fitness, visas and contract terms

Commercial terms: you pay only on placement

Candidate presentation is free of charge. A fee applies only when a candidate we presented is successfully placed on your vessel. There is no retainer and no exclusivity requirement.

In line with MLC 2006, seafarers are never charged for placement — which protects your vessel from the retention and conduct problems associated with fee-paying crew.

Frequently asked questions

Yes. We match candidates to your trade, including Aframax, Suezmax and VLCC crude tankers, subject to availability of the required experience.

Do you verify tanker endorsements?

Yes. STCW tanker certificates of proficiency are authenticated with the issuing administration before a candidate is presented.
