Disclosure of Results of Operations and Financial Condition. On July 30, 2003, Maritrans Inc. issued a press release announcing its second quarter 2003 financial results. The press release is being furnished with this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 99.1 and is hereby incorporated herein by reference. This report (including the exhibit) shall not be deemed to be "filed" for the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, nor shall it be incorporated by reference in any filing made by the Registrant pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, other than to the extent that such filing incorporates by reference any or all of such information by express reference thereto. Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information The press release contains a presentation of TCE revenue, which is a non-GAAP financial measure. A presentation of revenue, which is the most comparable GAAP measure to TCE revenue, is contained in the press release, as well as a reconciliation of TCE revenue to revenue. The Company's management believes that the presentation of TCE revenue provides useful information regarding the Company's financial condition and results of operation because TCE revenue essentially nets the voyage costs and voyage revenue to yield a measure that is comparable between periods regardless of the types of charters utilized. -2- SIGNATURE Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned hereunto duly authorized.

BROMFIELD (813) 209-0602 JUDITH M. CORTINA (610) 595-8055 NEWS RELEASE FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE MARITRANS REPORTS SECOND QUARTER EARNINGS AND DECLARES QUARTERLY DIVIDEND TAMPA, FL - (July 30, 2003) - Maritrans Inc. (NYSE: TUG), a leading U.S. flag marine petroleum transport company, today announced its second quarter financial results, declared its quarterly dividend and announced its quarterly investor teleconference. Net income for the quarter ended June 30, 2003, was $3.8 million, or $0.45 diluted earnings per share, on revenues of $36.2 million. This compares with net income of $2.8 million, or $0.32 diluted earnings per share, on revenues of $32.5 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2002. In the current quarter, the Company sold land not used in operations that resulted in a gain of $.07 diluted earnings per share. On a Time Charter Equivalent (TCE) basis, a commonly used industry measure where direct voyage costs are deducted from revenue, TCE revenue increased 11 percent to $30.4 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2003, from $27.5 million in the comparable quarter in 2002. TCE revenue is a non-GAAP financial measure, and a reconciliation of TCE revenue to revenue calculated in accordance with GAAP is attached. Maritrans also declared a quarterly dividend of $0.11 per share, payable on September 3, 2003, to shareholders of record on August 20, 2003. The majority of the Company's fleet was deployed under contract business in the quarter and, as a result, had limited exposure to the spot market. Spot rates in the current quarter were higher than in the same quarter of 2002, therefore vessels deployed in the spot market during the period realized higher revenue. Voyage costs, particularly fuel, were higher than the comparable quarter in 2002, and Maritrans' maintenance expense continued at the generally higher levels established in the second half of 2002. During the third quarter, the barge Ocean States will enter the shipyard to begin her double-hull rebuild, which the Company expects to be completed during the second quarter of 2004. The Company expects the out of service time from the double-hull rebuild along with other scheduled out of service time will result in decreased utilization in the remainder of 2003. Once the Ocean States re-enters service after her rebuild, more than half of the single-hull barges in the Maritrans fleet will have been rebuilt with double hulls. - MORE - Maritrans Reports Second Quarter Earnings and Declares Quarterly Dividend Page 2 July 30, 2003 MANAGEMENT'S COMMENTS Stephen A. Van Dyck, Chairman of Maritrans, commented, "Maritrans was recently named by Marine Money International as one of the top 10 companies in the worldwide maritime industry, the only U.S. flag operator so named. We also recently joined the Russell 3000 Index. We are pleased that our performance has been recognized in our industry and on Wall Street. The efforts we have undertaken during the last few years to position our company for long-term shareholder returns are proving successful and we continue to be optimistic about our future." Stephen A. Van Dyck, Chairman of Maritrans, commented, "Given the overall operating environment during both the second quarter and the first half of this year that included global uncertainty, unstable markets and increased costs, we are very pleased to deliver improved results." We will continue to run our business with our customers and shareholders in mind. Philip J. Doherty, Chief Executive Officer of Maritrans, commented, "We are pleased with our performance throughout the first half of this year despite the challenging operating environment. The second half of the year will be even more demanding as we experience additional out-of-service time due to planned rebuilding and maintenance. Nonetheless, our fleet is healthy, our position in the market remains strong and we will work hard to deliver positive operating and financial results."
