Petro Marine Services is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Harbor Enterprises, Inc.  Harbor and its affiliates are fueling an ever-growing share of Alaska's and northwestern Canada's petroleum needs.  The company historically has focused on marketing and distributing petroleum products to support the fishing industry from Alaska's ice-free ports.  While the marine industry remains the company's largest market, it has embarked on an aggressive diversification effort and now markets to the logging, mining, tourism, transportation, utilities and petroleum industries.  It also markets home heating fuel and operates retail gasoline stations.

Harbor Enterprises' hallmark always has been the high quality of petroleum products and services it provides its customers.  The company is owned by Dale and Carol Lindsey, who were both born and raised in Seward, Alaska, and acquired it in 1959.  Dale serves as Owner and Chairman of the Board of Harbor Enterprises, Inc.; Carol is the owner and chief Administrative Officer and Secretary Treasurer.

Founded in Seward in 1936 as Andy's Oil Delivery, the small town home heating fuel delivery service has grown to become the largest and one of the oldest independent petroleum distributorships in Alaska.  Dale Lindsey joined Andy's in 1956 as a truck driver.  With the purchase of Chevron USA's bulk fuel facilities in Seward in 1982, Harbor took its first giant step toward becoming a major marine fuel supplier.  The company entered a period of dramatic growth in 1984 with construction of a bulk fuel terminal in Dutch Harbor, the key port for fishing fleets in the North Pacific Ocean and the Bering Sea.  That's when marine operations were consolidated under the trade name Petro Marine Services.

Since then, Harbor's operations have spread throughout Southcentral and Southeast Alaska and northwestern Canada through a series of acquisitions and internal growth.  Today, Harbor Enterprises includes Petro Marine Services, marketing throughout Southcentral and Southeast Alaska; Alaska Oil Sales, marketing fuel from Kenai and Soldotna; North 60º Petro Ltd., a bulk fuel and distribution company serving the Yukon Territory and northern British Columbia; and Petro Express, Alaska's newest network of service stations.

The company is headquartered in Seward.  Petroleum products and services are offered at terminals in Craig, Homer, Juneau, Kenai, Ketchikan, Kodiak, Petersburg, Sitka, Skagway, Soldotna and Whitehorse.  The company also operates marketing offices in Anchorage.
