EXHIBIT 99.1

NOTICE OF FULL OPTIONAL REDEMPTION

California Petroleum Transportation Corporation

8.52% First Preferred Mortgage Notes Due 2015 (the "Notes")

CUSIP 130914 AM 6*

NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN pursuant to the terms of Indenture dated as of April 1, 1995 (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the "Indenture"), among California Petroleum Transport Corporation (the "Company") and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., successor in interest to Chemical Trust Company of America, as trustee (the "Indenture Trustee"), that all of the Notes have been called for full optional redemption (the "Redemption") on October 1, 2014 (the "Redemption Date") pursuant to Section 10.1(b) of the Indenture and the ninth paragraph of the terms set forth on the reverse of the Notes. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Indenture.

The "Redemption Price" is equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes as of the Redemption Date plus the Make-Whole Premium plus any accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the Redemption Date. The "Make-Whole Premium" means the excess, if any, of: (i) the aggregate present value at the Redemption Date of each dollar of principal of the Notes and the amount of interest (exclusive of interest accrued to the Redemption Date) that would have been payable in respect of such dollar if the Redemption had not been made, determined by discounting, on a semiannual basis, such principal and interest at a rate equal to the sum of the Treasury Yield (determined on the Business Day immediately preceding the Redemption Date) plus 0.375% from the respective date on which such principal and interest would have been payable if the Redemption had not been made, over (ii) the aggregate principal amount of the Notes.

The Notes must be surrendered to the Indenture Trustee at the following address to collect the Redemption Price:

If by mail or overnight courier:

The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A.

c/o The Bank of New York Mellon

Attn: CT Ops 111 Sanders Creek Parkway East Syracuse, NY 13057

For Information call 1-800-254-2826 or email corporate.bond.research@bnymellon.com

On the Redemption Date the Redemption Price will become due and payable on each of the Notes. Unless the Company defaults in making payment of the Redemption Price, interest on the Notes shall cease to accrue on and after the Redemption Date.
