About Argonaut.

A first-generation tanker management and chartering house, founded with one purpose: to operate vessels the way owners would operate them themselves.

About us

Formed in 2013. Built on consistency.

Argonaut Ship Management & Operation L.L.C was formed in the year 2013 as a ship owning and management company. Starting with two coastal tankers, the company has developed and is today providing top-tier services to its clients. Our track record equals our commitment to provide excellence and reliability in the maritime industry.

Today we own and operate tankers that transport fuels worldwide. Our motivated crew forms the backbone of our operations. Their skills and dedication are crucial to our success, and they share the company's commitment to excellence in every aspect of our business.

Our work

A reliable service. Every voyage.

We are committed to provide a reliable service for our clients.

Our crew represent us in the front line, interacting with our clients and charterers. Consistency is therefore important and the retention of crew a priority. We provide a safe and motivating working environment, and an inspiration for people aspiring to have a career in shipping.

At Argonaut Ship Management & Operation L.L.C, we are proud to be a first-generation shipping company, founded in 2013. Our team is made up of experienced individuals who are passionate about the shipping industry and dedicated to providing our services to our clients.

What we stand for

Three values, every voyage.

I / Value

Safety, without compromise.

Every decision — from drydock scheduling to bunker purchase — passes through the same safety lens. People come home. Cargoes arrive intact. Standards do not slip when no one is watching.

II / Value

Reliability, end to end.

An operation is only as strong as its weakest watch. We are reachable twenty-four hours a day, in every time zone we trade through — because that is when our principals need us most.

III / Value

Transparency, by default.

Owners receive plain-English reporting on technical, commercial, and financial performance. No surprises. No hidden margins. The decisions are yours; our job is to inform them.

Leadership

Owner-led. Hands-on.

Tariq Saeed Tarish Saif Almarri founded Argonaut in 2013 as the sole owner and managing director. With a commercial focus on the global tanker trades, Tariq directs the company's strategy, charter negotiations, and principal relationships personally.

That structure means decisions move quickly, accountability is never ambiguous, and the person you meet at the negotiating table is the same person who signs off on every voyage instruction.
