Shepherd Offshore Comments:

It seems like the beginning of a prosperous partnership with DHL as we planned, organised and completed a custom job to requirement with tremendous client satisfaction.

Working with new and old partners we created a safe and secure seafastening plan executed by our experienced hot works team. This project required custom T-Stoppers and H-beams work to distribute and fasten weight securely and safely. Not to forget loading a 150-ton reel, the team performed to maximum efficiency and effectiveness.
