Eva Marie Jensen (Norway)
Born in Tønsberg, Norway 1952. First time to sea with “Shikoku Geir” in 1975. Then busdriver before sea again. Was radioofficer from 1978, I sailed with Texaco Norway A/S company until 1985, my favorite was the beautiful midship tanker “Texaco Skandinavia”. Even the callsign was melodious: LEID. Then in Bergesen company from 1986 to 1991, mainly as deck officer on gas tankers. Last ship was “Rosa Tucano” in 1993. From then on I worked in “Kystverket”, the Norwegian Coastal Administration. (At that time I had taken over my father’s farm, I run it until 2004.) In 1998 Kystverket established a VTS, monitoring the ship traffic in the Oslofjord, and I have been here at Horten VTS ever since. At the moment (2009) I’m working with yet another Texaco reunion. My regards to all! Eva M Jensen.
