Grand Bahama Shipyard once again recognised for outstanding work in ship repair
Grand Bahama Shipyard (GBS) is continuing to make a good name for themselves in the international market. Last month after their swift repair of the ‘Stena Forth’ – which left the yard ten days ahead of schedule – they received international coverage in ‘The Motorship’ online magazine. ‘Motorship’ is a leading international information source for senior marine engineers reaching over 20,000 readers each month. Interviewed for the article was Senior Vice President of Sales and Marketing, Graham Couser, who noted “In January 2014 GBS was awarded the contract to lift a Blowout Preventer (BOP) Stack onto the ‘Stena Forth’. This was successfully performed and thereafter discussions and negotiations commenced regarding the possibility of performing the rig’s five year classification renewal programme at Freeport, Bahamas.” “We are delighted with the outcome,” noted Couser. “And knowing the limited options available to operators such as Stena in this region, the success of this project is essential to the development of this market segment for the yard.” The GB Shipyard team worked incredibly hard to prepare for this large project and new segment to their scope of work. GBS is one of the largest ship repair facilities in the Caribbean with three floating docks and all of the necessary support services required to complete any ship repair project. The Shipyard was recently recognized by the Society of Marine Port Engineers of New York for their outstanding work in ship repair during their annual event in New York. Source: Bahamas Islands Info

Local construction workers will spend some time on the water to repair the "Stena Forth" off the coast of Rockland. Crews from Cianbro have been hired to remove and reinstall three of the six giant thrusters on the vessel "Stena Forth". The ship is expected in the area on June 17, 2010. Crews will work around the clock for about a week to replace the thrusters, which propel the ship. The ship will stay about a mile and a half off the Rockland breakwater and the workers will use a crane on a floating barge to the lift the equipment.
