Goldberg is a graduate of the US Merchant Marine Academy at Kings Point, and sailed as a deck officer aboard US flag tankers ranging in size from 30,000 DWT to 265,000 DWT. He culminated his seagoing career by sailing for four years as a captain aboard a 72,000 DWT vessel. He began his shoreside career in 1984 with American Trading Transportation as a Port Captain. During his 11 years with Attransco, he assumed positions of increasing responsibility and was eventually appointed Vice President in charge of Chartering and Operations. In 1995, Captain Goldberg accepted a position as Vice President, Operations with ARCO Marine Inc. in Long Beach, CA. He managed the Operations group during the company’s transition from first-generation Valdez-trade tonnage to the christening in 1999 of ARCO’s first Millennium Class tanker. After British Petroleum’s purchase of Atlantic Richfield, Capt. Goldberg accepted a position with MarineSafety International, which he held until joining Marine Transport.
