Marine Construction

From anchor-handling vessels to crane barges and survey craft, ACL supports contractors and asset owners across the full spectrum of the marine construction and offshore support market.

Marine Construction

Overview

Marine construction projects demand specialised vessel types: anchor handlers, offshore supply vessels, pipe-lay barges, crane vessels, diving support craft and survey ships. Each asset class has its own market dynamics, and ACL's brokers have transacted across all of them.

We work with engineering contractors, energy companies and vessel owners to structure transactions that fit project timelines, financing arrangements and regulatory frameworks. Our experience spans both newbuild and the secondhand market, giving clients a complete picture of the options available at any given moment.

ACL also advises on the disposal of marine construction assets at the end of a project lifecycle, identifying buyers across global markets and achieving outcomes that can only be done with a deep and longstanding global network.
