Keep your vessels fueled, loaded, and turning around.

Dockside diesel, vessel lubricants, and DEF for towboats, workboats, and dockside operations along the Mississippi and the bayous.

Marcello tanker staged for a marine fuel delivery
THE PROBLEM

What goes wrong when fuel doesn't show up.

A boat held at the dock waiting on fuel is a boat losing money. Crews on the clock, schedules slipping, brokers calling. Generic suppliers do not understand dockside windows, tide-driven schedules, or the difference between a clean fuel drop and a mess on deck.

WHO WE ARE

A Donaldsonville name, on every delivery.

Marcello Distributors has fueled the marine operations of South Louisiana from our yard in Donaldsonville, where the river runs past every day. We know the docks, the captains, and what a clean, on-time drop looks like.

THE PLAN

Three steps to a fuel supplier who shows up.

  1. STEP 01

    Tell us what you run, and where

    One call to dispatch. We log the tanks, the fuels, the schedule, and the gate hours.

  2. STEP 02

    We schedule the drop

    You get a delivery window that fits the work, not the other way around.

  3. STEP 03

    Fuel, lube, and DEF arrive on your clock

    Our drivers know the routes, the sites, and how to keep your operation moving.

WHAT WE DELIVER

Built for marine accounts.

Dockside diesel

On-road and dyed diesel delivered to your slip on your loading window.

Vessel lubricants

Marine engine oils, hydraulic fluids, and gear oils, transferred clean.

Packaged and bulk DEF

Totes and bulk for newer engines that need to stay compliant on the water.

Greases and specialty fluids

For winches, deck equipment, and the gear that earns its keep underway.

Coordinated with your dispatch

We talk to your fleet manager so the truck and the boat are ready at the same time.

Clean offloads

Drivers trained for dockside work. No spills, no slop, no reason to call the Coast Guard.

WHAT'S AT STAKE

With a dependable supplier vs. without one.

WITH MARCELLO

Your boat fuels on its window and leaves on schedule. The deck stays clean. The captain signs the ticket and the next leg starts on time.

WITHOUT ONE

The boat waits. The crew runs the clock. The broker calls asking why the load is late. The supplier you used once does not pick up the phone next time.

Marine schedules do not wait. Set up dockside fueling now.

FAQ

Can you supply dyed diesel for marine use?

Yes. Dyed and clear, in the quantities you draw.

Do you carry marine-grade lubricants?

Yes. Engine oils, hydraulic fluids, and gear oils for the platforms and equipment we see on the river.
