Description

The Washington Marine Group's shipyards consist of Vancouver Shipyards Co. Ltd., Vancouver Drydock Company Ltd., and Victoria Shipyards Co. Ltd. and engage in vessel new construction, maintenance and repair.

Strategically located on the Canada's West Coast, Vancouver Shipyards' and Vancouver Drydock's modern, well-equipped facilities are located on the north shore of the sheltered, deep water port of Vancouver, British Columbia. Vessel maintenance and repair services are centered around two floating drydocks and a Syncrolift marine elevator. These facilities, coupled with large machine shop capability and craneage, enable the yards to handle vessels up to 85,000 DWT. New construction facilities include a major steel forming shop and a large fabrication and assembly hall. The fabrication hall is environmentally controlled, allowing major fabrication of steel or aluminum, regardless of weather conditions.

Along with a full complement of experienced tradespeople, Vancouver Shipyards and Drydock maintain a technical office staffed by highly skilled naval architects, draftsmen and marine engineers.

Victoria Shipyards is the largest ship repair company on Canada’s Pacific coast, handling vessels up to 100,000 DWT. The company operates out of the federally owned Esquimalt Graving Dock. Strategically located in the heart of the busy shipping lanes of the Pacific Northwest, the shipyard’s highly trained and experienced employees perform virtually every kind of ship construction, repair and conversion.

With a rigorous quality assurance program and Lloyd’s certification to ISO 9001:2000, 14001:2004 and OHSAS 18001:1999, all three Washington Marine Group shipyards are able to meet even the most demanding customers' needs. In addition to new construction projects and naval vessel maintenance, construction, and repair programs, Victoria Shipyards specialize in cruiseship repairs, refits, and upgrades.
