Fabrication & Marine Construction

Specialized Fabrication Solutions

Multimarine Services are pioneer fabricators in Cyprus with an extensive track record of delivering complex fabrication projects. Our Fabrication facilities in Limassol Port have direct sea access where our dedicated quay is equipped with a 750t Crawler Crane that facilitates the delivery of heavy or complex fabrication. Our large portfolio of completed fabrication projects demonstrates our target to become leaders in Mediterranean and our expertise varies from structural fabrications and new buildings to pipe work and subsea structures.

Multimarine operates three Fabrication and Welding Workshops strategically located inside the Port of Limassol. The fact that we are based inside the port enables us to gain easy access to our clients’ vessels and significantly reduce movement of the fabricated structures. Finally, we believe in effective communication, and we offer our clients full access to our premises for inspection and monitoring.

Pipelines Fabrication & Erection

Multimarine Services Ltd was part of the joint venture that successfully won and safely completed the VTT Vasiliko Oil Terminal Project – Onshore Upper Area Piping Erection.

Multimarine Services Ltd has developed extensive experience in pipeline fabrication and erection. Our Inspection Division offers emergency or planned inspections, and assessment for our Fabrication Division to step in and complete the repair and maintenance of existing lines.

Our manufacturing plants have the production capabilities to produce any quantity of pipelines and can mobilise and attend any project within a short timeframe.

SERVICES

  • Inspection and assessment of existing piping
  • Repairs and maintenance of existing piping
  • Pre-fabrication of new piping at the MMS workshops
  • Class certified/ coded welding
  • Erection, installation, testing, pre-commissioning at the site
  • Grit blasting & complete painting
  • Double wrapping of the underground piping
  • Supply of any non-free issue materials, including the supply of raw material

Marine Construction

Multimarine Services is involved in large Marine Construction and Coastal projects in Cyprus.

Multimarine’s participates in a consortium who successfully won and execute the construction of the Offshore Jetty for the Vassiliko Receiving and Regasification Terminal, the Cyprus FSRU Project. This is the largest energy infstructure project ever sanctioned in Cyprus and Multimarine is a major stakeholder.  Some of the main numbers of this ongoing project include:

  • Pile driving: 743 plies
  • Trestles: 37 pcs
  • Loop platforms: 5 pcs
  • Precast poste tensioning beams: 403pcs
  • Mooring Dolphins: 5 pcs
  • Breasting Dolphins: 3pcs
  • Loading platform: 1880m2
  • Jetty deck: 21.900m2
  • Concrete: 33.000m3
  • Steel reinforcement: 4.000 tn

The project required Multimarine to mobilise at short notice and create a dedicated large scale assembly plant for the fabrication of 27m long post-stressed concrete beams and all concrete crossheads.

The project itself is to create a 1500m long concrete jetty destined to receive the FSRU vessel ETYFA PROMYTHEAS. As a major stakeholder in the project, Multimarine have the responsibility for creating the complete concrete topsides.

In order to provide transport of the pre-cast elements from MMS Yard, Limassol Port to offshore Vassilko, Multimarine invested in a purpose built 6000tonne ocean going barge as well dedicated project craneage which is handled by way of our comprehensive fleet of ultra-modern heavy lift crawler/mobile cranes ranging in capacity from 220 to 750t. What’s more, Multimarine operates our own pier in Limassol Port that facilitates the direct load outs of heavy and complex pre-cast structures.

Of course quality control of the deliverables is carried out to European standards providing long term reassurance.
