Other Information
Heerema Hartlepool Ltd, a subsidiary of Heerema Fabrication
Group (HFG), builds structures for the offshore oil, gas
and renewable energy-related industries, including subsea
installations, fixed platforms and floating production facilities.
Heerema offers two purpose-built construction facilities
located around the sheltered Victoria Harbour in Hartlepool.
This prime north east England location affords ready access
by sea, air, road and rail and is nestled between Teesside and
Tyneside, two of the industry’s major sources of fabrication
skills and expertise.
The construction site consists of two fabrication halls and
covers 76,401 m
2
, with a 355-metre, 15,000-tonne capacity
quayside for large load-outs.
The facilities include:
• Covered large assembly halls
• Fully equipped prefabrication facilities
• Covered material stores
• Covered blasting and painting facilities
Workshops
The temperature-controlled blasting and painting workshop is
supported by two additional covered shelters for blasting and
coating larger structures.
Storage and Equipment
Heerema Hartlepool has three large, covered and heated
storage areas onsite for storing equipment and materials.
Some 16,100 m
2
of open storage and quarantine space within
the covered facilities provide significant onsite capacity.
An extensive array of equipment is available, including
permanent lifting capacity of up to 400 tonnes inside the main
fabrication hall, which is fully maintained in accordance with
UK legislation and manufacturers’ recommendations. We hire
specialised cranes for major lifts outside the fabrication halls of
up to approximately 800 tonnes.
