One of World Direct Shipping’s two ships, Queen B or Falmouth, calls at the Port of Pensacola every Monday, providing local and regional shippers direct shipping service to the Mexican ports of Tampico, Tuxpan and Coatzacoalcos.

 

Eagle Kuantan is an 800-foot tank ship operated by Malaysia International Shipping, formerly AET Tankers.
