Project: Repair of inland barge TREASURE

Situation and approach

Following a collision, TREASURE arrived with significant bow damage. Upon arrival, a repair plan was prepared immediately. The damaged sections were cut out and replaced with new sheet plating. The deck was also restored with floor segments and bollards. The bow was then sealed and repainted.

Result
TREASURE was fully restored and able to resume transport operations quickly.
