We kicked things off a little differently this week, with part of the Sweep team completing a 3-day Confined Space Rescue Refresher course to keep there certifications up to date at our GCCM factory with Vertical Horizonz and their mobile training unit.
Confined space is a big part of what we do every week, so getting the crew hands-on with the rescue side of it was a great way to build on the training and experience they already bring to site.
Outside of training, the jobs kept moving across every corner of the schedule - with a strong mix of tank works, coatings, fuel polishing, barge support and refit scopes across the yards.
MV Rino at The Boat Works Gold Coast and Quantum at Gold Coast City Marina & Shipyard both had barge works underway this week, with anchor and chain removal and returns completed across both jobs. Also at Gold Coast City Marina & Shipyard, Nancy Jean was in for fuel polishing, with 9,500L polished through the system.
Up at The Yard Brisbane, MY Glaze finished up its steering flats refinish, including Decidamp application, while over at Rivergate Marina and Shipyard, Kokomo II continued through tank works, with black tank spot repairs now close to completion.
Works also continued on the Carnival Cruises rescue boat at Pacific Marine Base, with fibreglass repairs and coatings underway on parts, and down at Harwood Marine, Aurora V is now in the final stages with deck coatings almost complete.
A solid effort from the team this week!
