PAD 1 

Adjoining the 435-metre-long South Mole waterfront, which has an 11-metre draft, Pad 1 features a loadout quay and service craneage. The specialised area provides an additional 2,940 m2 of prime workspace with a load-bearing capacity of 12 tonnes per square metre, supporting land-based fabrication work for the large and complex projects the yard increasingly attracts. 

Items recently fabricated at Pad 1 include three storage tanks for GibOil and new steel components for scrubbers and LNG retrofit structures. The area is also used for the repair of container vessel hatch covers and cargo crane jibs, as well as for the assembly of sub-blocks fabricated in our main workshop.  

Our Workshops

Our workshops, which total 7,000 square metres in area, feature all the machinery and craneage – with a load-bearing capacity of up to 30 tonnes – needed to handle a range of jobs from minor repairs to extensive conversion projects. The fully equipped facilities offer fabrication, machining, pipework, steelwork, joinery, electrical services, and more.
