We have been awarded the contract for the supply and fitting of the seafastenings to several  large umbilical reels by  Saipem, the oil & gas contractor . The contract involves the supply of approximately 30 tonnes of  fabricated steel seafastenings and securing the  cargo onto the deck of their shipping barge for safe transit to their Burullus contract currently being undertaken in Egypt.

Babcock have awarded George Brown & Sons the contract to undertake the refurbishment of the hauling chains that open and shut the two entrance gates into the Rosyth Naval Base basin. The contract is expected to take 6 months commencing March 2012.

Following an intensive audit procedure by international oilfield services provider Technip we have now been awarded their 'green light' status ensuring we can continue our successful relationship as a supplier.

We have invested in a Talurit 350 tonne wire rope press, allowing us to make wire rope slings from 10mm to 30mm diameter. This will save a lot of valuable time for our customers, as we will now be able to manufacture the slings in-house.

Braving November’s cold, we worked hard to manufacture, fit and test the brackets before erecting the banners outside the Scottish National Portrait Gallery in time for its grand reopening.  We supplied all the rigging gear and pressed the securing wires for the brackets in our Leith test house to ensure they met our high standards.

We spent two weeks working through the night, testing the fixing points to fit steel plates for the hanging of wire ropes to hold this year’s Christmas lights on George Street. As Edinburgh Council wanted more lights, five extra wires and fixing points were manufactured, tested and fitted.
