Mining the export market – largest contract to date
The contract for the fabrication of eight ground anchor and A-space frames for a Greenland-based mining company sees the largest contract to date for Harland & Wolff’s Arnish (Scotland, UK) yard.
The full scope of work will include four ground anchor frames and four A-space frames as well as other steel components. The frame components will make up part of the barge mooring system located at the Greenland-based mine and will allow the barges to moor at the quayside.
Work on the project is due to commence in September 2022, with final delivery by April 2023.
John Wood, Group Chief Executive Officer commented: "We are delighted that we have been trusted to deliver critical components for this mining infrastructure project. Selected for its location and extensive on-site capability, this is the Arnish yard's first export project within the mining sector.
“Further supporting the Group's multi-market strategy, Harland & Wolff (Arnish) has now delivered components in the nuclear, renewables, marine and oil and gas sectors in 2022 alone. We now look forward to delivering these key mining components over the next ten months and to a long prosperous partnership."
Harland & Wolff is a multisite fabrication company with over 160 years of maritime and offshore engineering pedigree, operating in the maritime and offshore industry through five markets: commercial, cruise and ferry, defence, energy and renewables.
