Oilfield Technology,


On 20 June, Fendercare Marine opened its Great Yarmouth base to showcase its expansion of lifting products and services over the last two years.

The Fendercare Marine Equipment and Lifting Services Open Day was attended by existing and new customers, as well as members of the local Great Yarmouth community. The guests were treated to displays of marine equipment products, lifting equipment, rope-splicing demonstrations, working at height equipment and load monitoring.

During the day, Fendercare Marine MD, Eric Plane, presented a donation cheque to the RNLI, which was followed by a rescue demonstration from the Gorleston RNLI team.

Shoreside support

Fendercare Marine Equipment and Lifting Services first opened in July 2012 to provide shoreside support to the wind farm vessels. Since then it has doubled its warehouse capability to offer onshore crane inspection and testing; mechanical and electrical lifting equipment; hydraulic equipment and winches; lifting tackle and load/stress monitoring equipment with many products available for sale or hire. These products and services are available to the renewable industry, the offshore oil and gas sector together with onshore industrial sectors, creating a truly unique and versatile energy and lifting support base.

As part of the expansion, Fendercare Marine also sublet new office space and provided a specially made Inspection Warehouse for their technician teams to Viking Life-Saving Equipment Ltd.
