OUR FREIGHT, DELIVERED COST-EFFECTIVELY AND EFFICIENTLY About Us Northern Transportation Company Limited is Northern Canada's oldest Arctic marine operator, and among Canada's largest barging companies. For 75 years we have provided reliable and essential marine transportation services to communities and resources exploration projects along the Mackenzie River in the Northwest Territories and across the Western Arctic, from Prudhoe Bay, Alaska as far east as Taloyoak in Nunavut, and from the Port of Churchill to communities in the Kivalliq region of Nunavut on the west Coast of Hudson Bay. In 2009, NTCL is offering a new marine service from Richmond, B.C. Cargo destined for the Western Arctic can be loaded onto a 12000-ton ocean capable barge and towed by an Arctic Class II supply ship, north along the West Coast, east along the north coast of Alaska and into Canadian Arctic waters for delivery to Kitikmeot communities.

NTCL's large, modern shipyard in Hay River, on the south shore of Great Slave Lake, is home to our fleet of river and ocean tugs and barges, used to transport fuel and dry cargo to our Northern customers. Our supply of nearly 1000 containers ensures freight arrives at its destination clean and dry. And from our base in Halifax, our three Arctic Class II supply vessels provide marine support services to Canada's East Coast offshore petroleum industry and to petroleum exploration projects in the Canadian and American Arctic.
