This is Taken from Cenkos Nov 21 note materials came from Saipems fabrication works in Indonesia

Saipem Phase 1 contract (note that the scope of works has expanded since initially signed, for example to include refurbishment of defects in owner supplied materials and modifications to the original design specifications, meaning that the total expected project size has increased from c£26.5m initially expected to c£30m).

Saipem have started to install the piles for the jackets so no doubt they will need the jackets ASAP to get the contract completed on time.

I Did read they are looking at closing the Indonesian fabrication plant that are making some of the jackets
can find the link if anyone is interested.

Good to see the good ship tug Venture docked at Appledore Si

Hi Si Noticed they are currently located by the lifeboat . If I remember correctly the swing mooring is far nearer to the numerous pubs and restaurants of Appledore probably a good choice for the night?
Regarding the next ship for dry docking at Appledore a suggestion was made on the LinkedIn but all been deleted so I guess we need to wait and see.

Hi Si read my post of 13 Jan 2022 09:14
The LinkedIn post has been deleted now
In short someone recommended Appledore
The customer said he had tried to contact but no one answered the phone
Jabido and Stokey emailed company about this.
The reply stated they had now contacted Mr Tugboat
Looks like all is well and JW owes a couple of members here a beer for pointing out the possibility of a contract
Hope that makes sense
OT

Good to see this. Is an oil rig heading your way?

Good evening gents
Do you think the long overdue refreshed shipbuilding strategy will be included in Goves levelling up plan ?
If so Laura Kuenssberg seems to think it will be published next week.

"There's an expectation too that the government will finally publish its plans for "levelling up" next week.

The white paper has long been pencilled in for the start of February and ministers may use it to show that they are, to use a phrase beloved by Boris Johnson, "getting on with the job".

Keep it quiet for though

Cheers Si no sign of a tugboat then lol

Evening Stokey agree about previous visits . My thoughts are along the lines of Methil is now a larger employer in the area as such of far more interest to the Fife Chamber ?
