Where the work can be carried out at sea ourrepresentatives are equipped to do so. however, if it is determined to bea port job then much time can be saved with advanced setting up priorto berthing and the work completed in port. Alternatively, this type ofwork can be ideally carried out in port despite the limited hoursavailable.FOR GENERAL CARGO VESSELS.
