At McDermott Shipyards,

Quality Is An Obligation

Not An Option

McDermott Shipyards build to only one standard — first class. Our tugboats, such as the 105' Rebecca P. for Poling Transportation

Co., our supply boats, posted drill barges, and jack-ups share special construction procedures, features, and techniques which result in the highest quality vessel.

We use computerized lofting and computer produced engineering drawings to direct multihead numerical control burning machines, a method noted for its speed and accuracy. Module components produced in this manner allow the most economical use of production manhours over the course of the construction contract.

Then we combine expert hand craftsmanship with our advanced tooling, quality control inspection and computer monitored construction schedules to build the highest quality ships and rigs and deliver them on time.
