Presentation of Progemar

Société Provençale de Remorquage (SPR) was founded at the end of the 19th century as a competitor of Chambon: there was, however, enough work for two towing companies in Marseilles, SPR remaining slightly less important than Chambon.
In 1923, the SPR contributed to the foundation of the Venture-Weir company (later incorporated to the SPR). SPR founded in Algiers Société Algéro-Provençale de Remorquage seven years later.
After the Second World War, the company modernized its tugboats. The increase in the size of the ships required even bigger and more powerful tugboats.
In 1967, the company, renamed Société Provençale de Gestion Maritime (Progemar), absorbed several towing companies in ports of the Channel and the Atlantic Ocean, New Caledonia and Reunion. The motherhouse was eventually renamed Nouvelle Société Provençale de Remorquage.
