Services / Drydock

Drydock projects planned, supervised and closed out.

Drydock specification, yard tendering, blasting and coatings, underwater overhauls and class-required surveys — managed end-to-end by our project team.

How we run a drydock

Drydock cost overruns usually start with a weak specification. We write it properly, tender it to the right yards, then stay on site until the vessel sails.

Planning & tendering

  • Detailed drydock specification and work packages
  • Yard selection and competitive tender comparison
  • Budget, critical-path and off-hire planning
  • Owner representation and daily progress reporting

Hull & coatings

  • Hull blasting and surface preparation
  • High-performance and anti-fouling coating systems
  • Tank coating and internal preservation
  • Cathodic protection and anode renewal

Underwater & class works

  • Tailshaft, rudder and propeller overhauls
  • Sea chests, valves and thruster servicing
  • Special, intermediate and docking surveys
  • BWTS and scrubber retrofit coordination
