San Enrique has bought two cargo platforms to move large blocks, each able to handle structures of up to 260 tonnes and 15 x 7 metres. The yard also has three vessels in for repair, including the 105-metre cable layer BOLD MAVERICK, the 26-metre WHITE STAR and the fishing vessel IGUELDO.
Astilleros San Enrique in Vigo says its gradas and berths are fully occupied, with more than 200 workers active across construction, repair and maintenance jobs. The latest vessel to arrive was the polar cruise ship OCEAN NOVA, 73 metres long, with capacity for 68 passengers and 38 crew, for propulsion work including the main engine and turbo.
Puerto de Santander has begun operating with a new floating ro-ro ramp built by Astillero San Enrique for Ferrovial. The structure was towed from Vigo to Santander in early March and installed at Raos 9, where it has now passed load tests.
