Stone Marine moves into Dubai Drydocks World

Sep 01 2017


In order to provide an even faster repair service in the Middle East to ship operators whose vessels have sustained propeller damage, Stone Marine Shipcare has signed a service agency agreement with Dubai Drydock World.

As a result, one of the companies mobile workshops is permanently based at DDW’s giant repair facilities.

 

The workshop will be used, not just at DDW’s own facilities, but it can also be transported very quickly to other Middle Eastern shipyards, wherever a ship is in need of repair or maintenance to its propeller.

 

Stone Marine technicians are training DDW personnel under the agreement enabling repair and maintenance work to be carried out by a combination of DDW and Stone Marine technicians.

 

Don Quilliam, Stone Marine Shipcare managing director said: “With over 300 vessels docking at DDW each year we are confident this will be a strong partnership, further enhancing the excellent service and facilities offered by Dubai Drydock World with an unrivalled propeller repair and modification service."
