         This Schedule 13D is being filed jointly on behalf of Morgan Stanley, a
Delaware corporation ("MS"), Morgan Stanley Capital Group Inc., a Delaware
corporation ("MSCGI") and Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated, a Delaware

         The address of the principal business office of each of the Reporting

         During the past five years, none of the Reporting Persons nor, to the

A, B or C attached hereto was a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or
administrative body of competent jurisdiction as a result of which such person

Item 3.  Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

         As more fully described in Item 4 below, on November 23, 2004, as
partial consideration for MSCGI entering into the Product Supply Agreement (as
defined below), the Company issued the Warrants to MSCGI.

Item 4.  Purpose of Transaction.

         The Company's wholly-owned subsidiary, TransMontaigne Product Services
Inc., a Delaware corporation ("TPSI"), is engaged in the business of storing,
distributing, supplying and marketing products, which requires a long-term
supply of certain refined petroleum products. TPSI and MSCGI have entered into
that certain product supply agreement, dated as of November 4, 2004 (as amended
from time to time, the "Product Supply Agreement") pursuant to which, among
other things, MSCGI will sell and supply refined petroleum products to TPSI and
TPSI will purchase and receive the same products from MSCGI.

         As partial consideration for MSCGI entering into the Product Supply
Agreement, the Company issued to MSCGI the Warrants, the terms and conditions of
which are provided in that certain warrant certificate dated as of November 23,
2004 (the "Warrant Certificate"). Each Warrant entitles the holder thereof to
purchase from the Company, at any time and from time to time on or after the
earlier to occur of March 1, 2005 and the date preceding a Reorganization (as
defined in the Warrant Certificate) through and including March 1, 2010, one
share of Common Stock, at an exercise price per Warrant equal to $6.60. The
number and kind of shares of Common Stock for which each Warrant is exercisable
and the exercise price are subject to adjustments from time to time as set forth
in the Warrant Certificate. The Warrants may be transferred in whole or in part
at any time and from time to time, provided that, so long as the Product Supply
Agreement has not been terminated or expired on its terms, the Warrants may not
be transferred directly or indirectly to a transferee that is not an Affiliate
(as defined in the Warrant Certificate) of MSCGI.

         In connection with the issuance of the Warrants, the Company and MSCGI
have entered into a registration rights agreement dated as of November 23, 2004
(the "Registration Rights Agreement") pursuant to which MSCGI and certain of its
transferees or successors (collectively, the "MSCGI Holders") were granted
certain demand and piggyback registration rights. The Registration Rights
Agreement will become effective at the same time as the Warrants become
exercisable. MSCGI Holders are entitled to request three demand registrations,
the last one of which shall be a shelf registration statement pursuant to Rule
415 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, to be effective for not less
than 180 days. No more than one demand registration may be requested by any
MSCGI Holder in any 12-month period. Subject to the terms and conditions of the
Registration Rights Agreement, the MSCGI Holders also have the right to include
their Registrable Securities (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement)
in certain registration statements filed by the Company on its own initiative or
at the request of a third party also entitled to registration rights. The
Registration Rights Agreement also contains customary provisions regarding the
registration rights, including, but not limited to, registration procedures,
transfer restrictions, withdrawal rights, registration expenses and
indemnification.

         A copy of each of the Product Supply Agreement, Warrant Certificate and
Registration Rights Agreement are attached hereto as Exhibits 1, 2 and 3,
respectively, and are incorporated herein by reference.

         Except as set forth in this Item 4, the Reporting Persons do not have
any current plans or proposals which relate to or would result in any of the
matters specified in clauses (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D.

Item 5.  Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

         For the purposes of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act, MS
may be deemed to beneficially own up to 5,500,400 shares of Common Stock
(5,500,000 of which are issuable upon exercise of the Warrants), or
approximately 11.67% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock based on
41,633,590 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of November 23, 2004 and
assuming the exercise in full of the Warrants. MS is filing solely in its
capacity as parent company of, and indirect beneficial owner of securities held
by, MSCGI and MS&Co.

         For the purposes of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act,
MSCGI may be deemed to beneficially own up to 5,500,000 shares of Common Stock
issuable upon exercise of the Warrants, or approximately 11.67% of the
outstanding shares of Common Stock based on 41,633,590 shares of Common Stock
outstanding as of November 23, 2004 and assuming the exercise in full of the
Warrants.

         For the purposes of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act,
MS&Co. may be deemed to beneficially own up to 400 shares of Common Stock, or
approximately 0.0% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock based on 41,633,590
shares of Common Stock outstanding as of November 23, 2004.

         The Reporting Persons do not affirm the existence of a group and are
filing this statement jointly pursuant to Rule 13d-1(k)(1) promulgated under the
Exchange Act, provided that, as contemplated by Section 13d-1(k)(1)(ii), no
Reporting Person shall be responsible for the completeness or accuracy of the
information concerning the other persons making the filing, unless such
Reporting Person knows or has reason to believe that such information is
inaccurate.

         MS and MS&Co. may be deemed to have shared voting and dispositive power
with respect to 400 shares of Common Stock held in a proprietary account at
MS&Co. that were previously acquired in open market transactions. By virtue of
the relationship previously reported under Item 2 of this statement, each of MS
and MSCGI may be deemed to have shared voting and dispositive power with respect
to 5,500,000 shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by MSCGI. Neither the
filing of this Schedule 13D nor any of its contents shall be deemed to
constitute an admission by each Reporting Person that it is the beneficial owner
of any of the Common Stock referred to herein for purposes of Section 13(d) of
the Exchange Act, or for any other purpose, and such beneficial ownership is
expressly disclaimed.

         Except as set forth in Schedule D, none of the Reporting Persons has
effected any transactions in the Common Stock during the past 60 days. None of
the Reporting Persons is aware of any information that indicates that any other
Reporting Person has effected any such transaction.

         By virtue of the relationships described in Item 2 of this statement,
MS may be deemed to have the power to direct the receipt of dividends declared
on the shares of Common Stock held by MSCGI and MS&Co. and the proceeds from the
sale of the shares of Common Stock.

Item 6.  Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect
         to Securities of the Issuer.
