DSEI 2021 starts on Tuesday and H&W are attending on the DSEI 2021 website they have a video on their listing in the list of exhibitors. With luck this might raise some interest and cause people to seek them out. My question is would attendees be attending ready to buy or just looking to see what is available.

Seems like lots of useful detail in this to help get an understanding of offshore wind opportunities / port capabilities
Just seen this article https://www.business-live.co.uk/manufacturing/first-apprentice-intake-devons-appledore-21525035 it says a bit more from earlier reports.
dawski37 ref 08.34 post thanks for that. On whether it is one of the three ships to keep H&W busy in Q4 I would say probably not. My main reason for saying that is that September is in Q3. Also the feel I get from the way the post was worded is that there might be work in addition to the three ship deal. But we can wait and see.
Stokey.. from own sources yesterday but now readily available on Social Media and NI Ferry Site . As you say, the Belfast Harbour Site info only goes to 18th September !!

Fantastic to have the only marine fabrication footprint that could build all of these vessels concurrently across our four sites in Belfast, Appledore, Methil and Arnish to ensure the platform could enter service as soon as possible.

Just seen this LinkedIn post from JW. I think this is a good use of his time. https://www.linkedin.com/posts/activity-6842326908240179200-A634. The text of the post is
It’s taken nineteen months since we first acquired the Belfast yard but we eventually have our first exhibition next week. Exhibitions are a great way of meeting multiple clients from a host of global locations in one place. Since the marketing & communications team will have me in the same place for most of the week!, we intend to run some short live broadcasts if we can and talk all things H&W and Islandmagee Energy. #defence #shipbuilding #Harlandandwolff #navantia
dawski37 ref 19.57 post Can I ask where you are getting that from as my source only goes out to a week.
Nice sleuthing, LSE03.
European Causeway is shown to be coming for another oil change on 23rd September... but is it one of the three beauties scheduled to be keeping us frantically busy in Q4 ?!!!!

Excellent news about apprenticeships and site visit all looking very good and ready for those contracts gla have s good weekend
RazorShulz Just saw a comment on the post it said Good Luck. The interesting thing is it was from the Abu Dhabi National Oil Company.
Oldtramp and Stokey both very welcome updates! Here's to more contracts coming in and the successful progression of the Saipem one!
Just seen this on LinkedIn. Representatives from the Oil and Gas Authority have been on a site visit to Methil https://www.linkedin.com/posts/harlandwolffplc_today-we-welcomed-bill-cattanach-obe-sylvia-activity-6842092446592176128-OW_N The text of the post is
'Today, we welcomed Bill Cattanach OBE, Sylvia Buchan and David Wilson from the Oil and Gas Authority to our Methil site. William Duff, our General Manager, took them on a site tour, showing how we have invested in the site and prepared it for delivery on the Saipem windfarm contract.
"We were delighted to receive the following note after their visit from Bill.
It has been a couple of years since I was last at the yard and what you have achieved since taking over the facility is truly transformational - the yard now reflects a modern fit for purpose establishment to build the next generation of offshore infrastructure
In my role I will certainly be promoting the offering to developers of upcoming energy transition projects and ensuring you have a fair and open opportunity to complete for contracts
I look forward to future engagement with you and the wider InfraStrata Group"'
Finally Appledore gets some apprentices

Chrisatrdg ref 11.30 post I suspect that the market is expecting some news and hence why the shares go up on a Friday then down on Tuesday. Hopefully this time the news is what the market is expecting. The last time we had trading like this was just before the last NED appointment. Once the RNS came out the share price went down. With luck it will hold its gains.
The most important trade today is the closing. If it is above 20p, the seller is done and we can breathe a sigh of relief.
I have been monitoring the SP & recently topped up & now of the opinion that INFA is about to blow & expect a positive update on the 30th Sept.There are now too many postings in the 'INFA' social media world for us not to think we may have a step up in activity.I am now posting 'Strong Buy' GLA.
Got me playing Gorillaz's "Dare" now, Stokey.
It's coming up, it's coming up, it's coming up....
:)
Si_Derman ref 10.29 post judging by all the social media posts over the last couple of days something is coming up.
Nice 2.225m top up?
