There is extensive storage and load-out capability with fully equipped workshops covering all trades required to carry out projects from relatively simple ship repair to major complex ship conversions. Located on one of the busiest rivers in the UK, our 5 acre Tees yard consists of two dry docks and 240m of jetty frontage. With extensive workshop facilities, cranes up to 40 tonnes and a secure tank washing facility the Tees yard is considered a centre of excellence for offshore vessels, dredgers and tankers. Among our customer base we boast a number of Oil Majors and their key contractors as well as the UK Ministry of Defence and some well-known national and worldwide shipping groups. In addition to major marine projects our fabrication facilities lend them self to building offshore modules, subsea structures, and new ship sections.
