HEISCO Marine Outfitted with the
Autoship System
Autoship Systems Corporation (ASC) of Vancouver, Canada
is pleased to announce a new installation of their naval
architecture and ship production software to a shipyard
client in the Middle East. HEISCO (Heavy Engineering
Industries & Shipbuilding Co.) has chosen 'The AutoSHIP
WORKS Package' which will allow them to take a new project
through the complete design spiral - from hull lines
right through to nested parts - in a shorter timeframe.
The Marine division of HEISCO was established in 1974
(as Kuwait Shipbuilding and Repair Yard Co.) to meet
the needs of the shipping and maritime industry in the
Northern Arabian Gulf. Over the years the Marine division
has diversified its initial core business activities
to meet requests for new engineering projects. They
sought out Autoship Systems to provide a new engineering
solution.
HEISCO Marine is now capable of undertaking design
and construction of ocean-going vessels. Fully equipped,
covered shipbuilding workshops with NC cutting machines
and automatic welding processes, highly skilled multinational
work force and quality assurance systems offers their
clients cost effective and high quality engineering
to satisfy their new building requirements.

Oil spill recovery vessel M.V. Wara

Oil Spill Recovery Vessel M.V. Wara and delivered to
its owner Kuwait Oil Company. The vessel is specialized
in fighting oil related pollution including chemical
dispersing of spilled oil in the Arabian Gulf water.
Besides being a pollution and fire fighting ship, it
is also used as a tailing tug for vessels, while loading
at SPM terminal facilities in Kuwait. For more information
