Excellence in Every Delivery
In our ongoing series exploring Delta Western's core values, we're focusing today on what "Deliver Excellence" means for you and your community. When you depend on fuel deliveries in some of the most challenging conditions in America, excellence isn't a luxury—it's essential.
Expert Teams When It Matters
Excellence begins with the people who serve you. Our in-house team from terminal managers to tankermen to tenured drivers bring specialized knowledge that's sought after industry-wide. These aren't just Delta Western team members; they're your neighbors who have dedicated their careers to mastering fuel delivery in our unique environment.
What this means for you: When you need fuel delivered through challenging terrain, in difficult weather conditions, or during unexpected situations, you're working with professionals who have seen it all and solved it countless times before.
Planning That Goes Beyond Standard Practice
Being excellent requires exceptional planning. Our journey begins with securing fuel, navigating disruptions and transporting it hundreds of nautical miles through challenging waters before reaching our communities in Alaska.
Our specialized barges, each carrying thousands of barrels, transport multiple grades of fuel simultaneously from aviation gas for helicopters to home heating fuel for your family. This journey requires precise coordination that we've refined over four decades.
What this means for you: While you may not see the complex logistics happening behind the scenes, you experience the result. Consistent, reliable fuel delivery regardless of the obstacles nature puts in the way.
Infrastructure Built for Reliability
Excellence requires investment. We've built redundancies into every step of our logistics chain, from maintaining multiple fuel sources to ensuring backup transportation options. What began in 1984 as a single fueling station in Dutch Harbor has grown into one of Alaska's leading independent fuel distributors, delivering over 100 million gallons annually across Western and Southeast Alaska.
What this means for you: When others might not be able to deliver, our robust infrastructure and careful planning ensure your community keeps running smoothly, day after day.
Excellence is a Daily Commitment
Delivering excellence isn't just about what we've built over 40 years – it's about the decisions we make every day. It's about our drivers checking on customers during their routes. It's about sharing expertise when equipment issues arise. As we continue to serve our shared communities, know that our commitment to excellence remains unwavering – because we understand that you're counting on us, no matter what challenges come our way.
