Featured Project
Facilities: Tyne
Our Tyne facility is situated at Hebburn on the south side of the river Tyne in the North East of England.
It boasts the largest dock on the east coast of England with a dedicated high capacity load out quay and deep water berths. We have a large modern fabrication facility complete with panel line, gas and plasma burning machine. This is complemented by a highly skilled flexible workforce. In addition to our fabrication facility we have extensive storage capability and workshops to cover all trades required to carry out projects from relatively simple ship repair to major complex conversions such as FPSO’s and Cruise Ships.
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 world wide shipping groups. In addition to major marine projects our fabrication facility lends itself to building offshore modules, sub sea structures, new ship sections and we have previous experience in all of these areas.

We strive to improve the yard on a year to year basis.
2008 - We dredged the yard frontage clear of all TBT contaminants. This both improves our draft capability and cleans up the environment.
2009 - We upgraded our fabrication facilities by the installation of a panel line and steel cutting equipment.
2010 - We rebuilt our West Quay and created a 4,800m2 fully serviced working quay with load out facility with a load capacity of 10T/m2
