Holyhead Marine Services has one of the best equipped and most up to
date yards of its size in the UK. The capacity to lift out vessels
of up to 100 tons and work on them in environmentally controlled
and secure buildings, added to a skilled and permanent workforce,
offers unrivalled service and efficiency to our customers.
Refits and repairs are carried out on a wide variety of commercial
craft with previous and current customers including the RNLI,
the Ministry of Defence, the Environment Agency, Irish Ferries
and the Stena line.
Repairs are carried out on steel, aluminium, GRP and timber
vessels with afloat repairs being carried out on larger vessels
such as bulk carriers, coasters, tugs, barges and pontoons,
conventional and high speed ferries. Vessel types range from
RNLI Tyne, Trent, Arun, Severn & Mersey class lifeboats
and Royal Navy 20.5m Archer class warships through to the Irish
Ferries Ro-Ro conventional ferry ‘Ullysses’ , arguably
the largest of its kind in the world.
With our well equipped fabrication and engineering workshops,
Holyhead Marine also provides essential services for local industries.
Fibreglass ovens for Peboc, fabricated gangways for Octel, the
linkspan for Holyheads own fishdock, plus the ongoing maintenance
work on the ferries to Ireland are some examples. More specialised
work due to the groups experience in running the Single Buoy
Mooring at Amlwch on behalf of Shell UK for the full 13years
of the contract means that BHP in Liverpool Bay rely on Holyhead
Marine for all their floating hose testing, maintenance and
storage requirements.
These services include the testing, maintenance and repair
of flexible floating hoses and associated equipment for the
transfer of oil. Hoses of up to 24” bore with an overall
assembled length of 350m can be handled. Facilities are available
for testing in accordance with OCIMF rules.
The company’s Quality Management System has been approved
by Lloyd’s Register Quality Assurance to BS EN ISO 9001:2000.
