The UK Offshore Oil and Gas Fabricators Directory 2016

Projects and Markets Other Information (continued)

The BiFab Arnish facility in Stornoway, Outer Hebrides allows it to produce monopiles and manufacture wave and tidal devices. This facility is equipped with heavy rolling equipment, with the capacity to roll materials up to 150 millimetres thick, and has a load-out capacity up to 3,000 tonnes. While continuing to service the needs of oil companies, engineering companies and offshore suppliers associated with the oil and gas and petrochemical sector, BiFab is now adapting its expertise to cover fabrication solutions that are required for the alternative energy sector (covering wind, wave and tidal energy), while simultaneously achieving the highest standards currently applicable. BiFab is increasingly becoming involved, at the front end, in innovative projects where it can apply its expertise to provide practical and cost effective solutions to the development team. BiFab prides itself on the fact that its clients in these projects perceive the company as a proactive contributor to the overall achievement of project goals, rather than just the fabricator. BiFab aims to provide a flexible approach to the fabrication industry with the skills, expertise and competence gained from over 30 years in the oil and gas sector. BiFab hopes to be a major contributor to the development of a new and sustainable industry and, at the same time, contribute to creating a secure future for its employees and the design and fabrication industry in the UK and Europe.
