The
Golden Gate Bridge acts as a gateway to the three refineries
that ATC vessels deliver to in the San
Francisco Bay Area. Heading North,
the first stop is the Chevron Richmond refinery. Further up, ships
encounter the “over the shoal” (Pinole Shoal) and under the bridge
(Carquinez Bridge) exercise, where tides and bridge clearances are
a factor, prior to arriving at the Benicia - Valero and Martinez
- Tesoro refineries.
