Stockdale Yard Accomplishments

I would like to take this opportunity to highlight some recent accomplishments and ongoing initiatives within our operations at Coastal Plains Trucking.

Since 2011, our Stockdale Yard leadership team continues to demonstrate solid expertise, with management personnel having tenures ranging from 10.5 to 14 years, collectively bringing over 38 years of experience to the organization. This experienced leadership ensures stable and informed decision-making.

Similarly, our driver team reflects a strong commitment to service, with members ranging from seasoned professionals with more than 14 years of service to newer drivers with approximately 2 years. Notably, the majority of our drivers have been with CPT for more than a decade, underscoring retention and loyalty within our workforce.

In terms of safety, I am pleased to report zero accidents or incidents in the fourth quarter. Additionally, we achieved 100% completion of all required safety training videos, submitted promptly as per guidelines. These results demonstrate our ongoing dedication to maintaining a safe operational environment.

Furthermore, our dispatch team, has expanded its role to provide enhanced support to the Cryo management team in Baytown, particularly during nights, weekends, and holidays. Their additional responsibilities include supporting the Baytown crew during off-hours, assisting with customer communication, coordinating maintenance and managing breakdowns, as well as handling emergencies and incidents effectively.

We believe these accomplishments and enhancements play a crucial role in strengthening our service quality and operational resilience to better serve our customers.

Baytown Yard Accomplishments

I would like to give a big shoutout to our drivers. They have pushed tirelessly this year to get us to where we are today. They have embraced and  dhered to our strict safety standards, remained flexible with their home times to ensure jobs were completed, and consistently kept our customers satisfied. They have adapted to every change this year has brought, and because of their efforts, we’ve maintained our position as the number one preferred vendor for our customers.

Their hard work and dedication have carried us all the way into the fourth quarter - longer than we have ever had the bulk of our drivers running this late in the year. This achievement is a true testament to their commitment and perseverance.

I would also like to highlight our exceptional management team - Odette, Yana, Alexis, Chad, Rick, Izzy, Wes, Will, and myself. It truly took a village to keep our trucks and drivers operating safely, meet tight customer deadlines, handle last-minute schedule changes, and ensure billing remained accurate
and on time.

Thank you all for the incredible teamwork, dedication, and resilience that made this year a success.

Charlotte Yard Accomplishments 

I am thrilled to take this opportunity to share some incredible highlights about one of our most consistent and dependable yards - the Charlotte Terminal. Since its inception in March 2013, the terminal has evolved into a powerhouse of performance and dedication, consistently delivering on its promises with unwavering commitment.

Starting with hauling crude oil, the Charlotte Terminal has impressively expanded its portfolio to include diesel fuel, jet fuel, LNG, CNG, nitrogen, and sand. This wide range of commodities demonstrates the yard’s exceptional versatility and capability to meet diverse operational demands, putting us
ahead of the curve in this competitive industry.

Our yard accomplishments in the fourth quarter are nothing short of outstanding. I am proud to report ZERO accidents or incidents during this period - an achievement that speaks volumes about the safety culture ingrained within this team. Equally commendable is our 100% completion rate of all required safety training videos, all submitted promptly and in compliance with guidelines. These achievements highlight a relentless commitment to maintaining a safe and secure working environment for everyone involved.

Our safety performance statistics are a true testament to the focused efforts and discipline practiced here day in and day out. The dedication to safety is first class and it is clear this terminal places the highest priority on protecting its workforce and assets without compromise.

Additionally, it is inspiring to witness the experienced leadership and the long-standing tenure of the driver team at Charlotte Terminal. Their commitment and expertise have been instrumental in building a culture of excellence and customer satisfaction. Notably, several drivers recently celebrated their 10-year milestones, including two team members with extensive experience across various commodities reaching a remarkable 10-year tenure this November. These milestones speak not only to personal dedication but also to the strong bond and loyalty that define the Charlotte Terminal family.

In conclusion, Charlotte Terminal exemplifies everything we strive for - consistent delivery, a versatile operational capacity, a stellar safety record, and a team driven by passion and loyalty. Our team will continue to champion these values and build on this solid foundation as we move forward.

Thank you to all our team members in Charlotte for your commitment and hard work. Here’s to reaching new heights together!

Thank You

As we wrap up another successful quarter at Coastal Plains Trucking, I’m excited to share some key highlights. Our focus on safety has significantly improved our safety scores, which is a testament to the hard work of our drivers, dispatchers, and safety team. Their dedication ensures every haul meets the highest standards.

We’ve received outstanding feedback from our customers, reflecting the reliable and professional service our drivers provide. Your commitment to excellence strengthens relationships and opens new doors for growth.

In addition to our success in cryogenic markets, our sand, crude oil, and water transportation divisions have seen remarkable growth. Our sand division has recently broken CPT records, delivering an unprecedented volume. This achievement highlights the efficiency and expertise of our team, positioning us as a vital partner in this market.

Our crude oil transportation sector also remains strong, with a solid track record of safely and efficiently delivering crude to refineries and key markets. As demand for reliable crude oil logistics continues, our fleet is optimized to handle these critical loads, ensuring we maintain our leadership role in the energy supply chain. Our ability to meet the fluctuating demands of the global energy market further strengthens our standing as a trusted player in crude oil transport.

Exciting developments are underway in our water division, which has recently seen a significant uptick in load volumes thanks to the addition of several new customer locations. Water transportation is crucial for supporting oil and gas operations, particularly in West Texas, and our team delivers exceptional service in this market.

Meanwhile, in the cryogenic markets, demand remains strong for CO2 and industrial gases, and we are expanding our capabilities in these specialized sectors. Industries like food processing, energy, healthcare, and manufacturing rely on these gases, and our ability to handle these loads with precision has set us apart. We’re also exploring new transborder opportunities with Canada, further positioning ourselves to become a North American cryogenic transportation leader.

Our efforts in the compressed natural gas (CNG) sector, particularly in West Texas, are also paying off. With the rising demand for sustainable fuel alternatives, we’re enhancing our operations to meet the needs of CNG transport. Our partnerships with key energy sector players and investment in CNG transportation will ensure we’re well-prepared to lead in this growing market.

Coastal Plains Trucking is well-positioned for future growth and continued success across our sand, crude oil, water, cryogenic, and CNG markets. None of this would be possible without your hard work and dedication. Your efforts drive us forward, and I’m confident that we’ll continue to see great success together.

Thank you for your commitment and hard work in safely delivering uncompromised service!

Out of this World
Did you know Coastal Plains Trucking keeps things moving across the continental United States and into outer space? We’re proud to honor Eric Pielecki (left). Eric hauled many loads out to the Blue Origin site – where private citizens Jeff Bezos, Mark Bezos, Wally Funk and Oliver Daemen became astronauts following a successful round trip past the Kármán Line, the internationally recognized boundary of space. This project has been Eric’s main focus for several years. Following the success of New Shepard’s recent mission, we recognized Eric for his efforts with a special award (presented by Glenn Brewer, right).
