Senesco Marine Inks Contract for Dry Dock Construction (USA)

Tom Johnson, Vice President of Senesco Marine Business Development, announced that his company, specialized in construction of double-hulled barges, tugboats, and other vessels, inked a contract for the construction of a 120 x 420-ft., 7300 long ton hauling capacity Dry Dock.

The order was placed by Caddell Dry Dock and Repair Company, Inc., of Staten Island, NY, who are the contract signatories, reports the Maritime Professional.

“We are pleased to announce the contract award by Caddell Dry Docks & Repair Co’s. new dry dock,” said Johnson.

As confirmed by Steve Kalil, President of Caddell, the order represents an immediate result of previous cooperation and Senesco’s delivery of a new dry dock in July of 2011.
