Along the way, PSC leadership realized that achieving success in challenging plant environments also enabled the company to excel outside the plant within its customers’ supply chains. As a result, the industry now looks to PSC to solve some of its most pressing supply chain problems.

History of PSC Group
Originally established as Petroleum Service Corp. by D.H. Haymon in 1952, PSC Group began as the first shoreside tankerman service in the U.S. Haymon also had a day job. He served as the superintendent of marine operations, docks, tank farms and fuel blending at ExxonMobil’s Baton Rouge refinery, which was the world’s largest refining complex at the time.
Before long, plants and refineries began talking to Haymon about technical support in marine, rail and other hazardous materials handling operations. He realized the industry needed an operations contractor working adjacent to a plant’s employees and taking care of all product movement operations in the facility. PSC has spent the last 72 years building on that vision.
As it strives to meet the needs of a growing and changing industry, PSC’s focus remains unchanged — "to be the best at what we do." Inquiries about operations and supply chain needs are welcomed. The goal is to learn from one another.
