Ocean going ATBs are not crewed like tugs and barges in the river. Barge Captain is not a usual title for anyone on an ATB Barge. There are usually at least two Tankermen that work under the direction of the Mates. Same thing for wheelhouse personnel. Usually a Captain (Master), Chief Mate and Second Mate. Barge duties are usually shared between the mates, and the tankermen work at their direction. I would worry more about having the appropriate credentials than I would about the pay. . . .
