Tees Bay Pilots provide pilotage services in the Ports of Tees & Hartlepool.

Pilot services are available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.

Each Pilot is a qualified Master Mariner and undergoes extensive local training over a five year period to become a Senior First Class Pilot.

Authorised by PD Teesport for the Tees Bay and ports of the Tees and Hartlepool, the Tees Bay Pilots Ltd co-operative is responsible for the safe navigational conduct of all vessels under pilotage in the district.

Our prime undertaking is local pilotage and ship handling, but also as a group we can offer expertise on wider maritime issues.
