NESB are proud of their achievements and some of the exciting projects we have worked on. We like to keep the news section updated with the projects we work on so potential clients can see first hand what our capabilities are.
Busy couple of day for NESB with bollard replacement work taking place at Inter Terminals and a fender, mooring line installation on the HM Bark Endeavour in preperation for towage to the Tees Barrage.
The first use of NESB's modular NATO pontoon. NESB were tasked to provide marine support for thruster installation on the GMS Evolution at Blyth. We managed to install all the thrusters on consecutive days with no issues. The pontoons were used as a platform to install each 7.6t thruster as well as accomodating all the ancillary equipment needed for the installation such as the scissor lift and generators. A lot of companies were involved to make this happen but it's great to see this sort of expertise and this type of work being carried out in the North East.

Fitting out jetties with new access ladders.
Provising our customers with bespoke pontoon solutions and our boats is becoming a key part of our expanded offering.
A common question we get asked is, "What exactly is a safety boat used for?".
So we have just created our very own YouTube Channel to give everyone an insight into our boats and our work.
Just a few test videos initially but we will be uploading more videos showing exactly what we do and what we can offer our customers.

A busy last few months for NESB, we are currently working accross 3 sites on the River Tees which has led to us purchasing more assests to better secure our position on the river as a leading operator. Although stretched at times we have endeavoured to provide a first class service for our clients. The new year is looking very promising with contracts continuing and starting in the North East.
NESB have been awarded a marine support services contract at the ConocoPhillips site situated on the River Tees. This involves the provision of Safety Boats and Work Boats and the transportation of the clients modular pontoons.

INEOS required this Yokohama Fender to be refurbished within one week!
The task involved removal from site to our workshop, providing new chains and tyres and then repositioning at INEOS no 2 Jetty on the Tees.
A spokesman from Kaefer, who were the contractors involved, stated that " Only NESB could have completed the job on time and to such a high standard."
NESB were asked by Waitings to provide a suitable vessel for access under the jetty at Victoria Dock, which would also be suitable to carry out hot works. The solution was "Sea Minion" our ex MOD Rigid Raider this extremely versatile vessel was more than suited to the task and provided the right means to get the job done safely and efficiently and within tidal restrictions.

Working closely with the client we were able to provide lifejackets for works being carried out on the jetty, as well as providing lifejackets we were asked to provide a briefing and induction on the safe working practices of the lifejackets giving the client a sense of ease that personnel have the confidence on the use of lifejackets.
NESB recently provided a Safety Boat and Workboat for Balfour Beaty on the SABIC site for remedial works on the underside of a jetty on the river tees.
NESB worked closely with the client providing maritime advice on the the tidal restrictions involved and the safest method to carry out the works in such a confined space.

Working at the new MPI Tees base, MC Construction asked NESB to provide a safety boat for Demobilisation work being carried out on the MPI Adventure.
