Seaport Petroleum

Information may not be reliable

SeaPort Petroleum was founded as Collins Oil Co. in 1954 by Burt Collins as a Texaco Jobber in Portland Oregon. In 1970, Howard Thomas purchased Collins Oil Co. from the Collins family and started growing the company. Then in 1982 Collins Oil Co. purchased Seattle Based Huff Petroleum from Frank Huff. While the corporation name remains Collins Oil Co., the operating name of SeaPort Petroleum was born to reflect the tie between Seattle and Portland and our commitment to the Northwest Market. During this time then President stepped down and transferred the role of President and CEO to Randall Thomas.
During the period of 1980 through 1990 the company made several acquisitions and continued to develop programs and services designed to enable the company to thrive in the next century. Specifically the company has developed strengths in the technical and electronic aspects of the business, from engineering support services to e-commerce. SeaPort was first to take on-site fleet fueling into the electronic age, capturing the fueling data electronically and being able to provide that data to the customer as they needed.
