Jumboizing

We coined the term and jumboized our first ship in 1956. Since then we've jumboized 24 ships ...more than the rest of the

U.S. industry combined. No other shipyard in the entire world can match our facilities, our people, our jumboizing experience.

We have an engineering and design staff of 2,000...and a total work force of 24,000 conscientious craftsmen.

We have 8 piers up to 1200 feet...deep-draft graving docks from 650 to 1600 feet long and 92 to 250 feet wide...300,000 sq. ft. of machine shops...an acre steel fabrication center... a foundry that specializes in pouring marine castings.

We have nearly a century of shipbuilding and ship repair experience and we have the critical knowledge of regu- lation standards and regulatory bodies.

We can produce any size jumbo...bulk tanker, cargo vessel, container ship, spec- ial product carrier. We have more experience than any other U.S. yard in designing, installing and testing inert gas systems, crude oil washing systems, segregated ballasts and other modifications to meet

IMCO standards.

If you're consider- ing a jumboizing job or upgrading to meet regu- latory requirements, call us.
