After Docking 106 Ships in 2024, it has been another extremely busy start to the year for Dales Marine across our four main locations in Aberdeen, Leith, Greenock and Troon, with an exciting project supporting a vessel conversion to Hydrogen power.
In Aberdeen, in addition to supporting vessels around the Port with mobilisations and maintenance the company have welcomed two passenger ferries, and two platform supply vessels into dry dock as well as having a full order book for the fabrication yard supporting subsea, drilling and offshore wind projects.
The team in Leith have been tackling mobilisations, maintenance and upgrades to nine vessels — from pipework to galley refits and room conversions. Imperial dry dock has seen back-to-back double dockings, with major refurbishments on tail shafts, rudders and thrusters, plus hull cleaning and painting. Alongside space has also been busy, with a survey vessel undergoing engine works and structural repairs on a tug.
This is the busiest time of year on the West coast and Greenock have had back-to-back double dockings of Passenger Ferries since the start of the year as well as full alongside berthage. It is also supporting an interesting project converting a ship to be able to run from hydrogen fuel cells highlighting Dales Marine’s commitment to supporting the Marine industry on its path to carbon neutrality.
Troon has also been busy docking four different passenger ferries already.
