As international trade escalates, so does the need to build vessels capable of transporting goods around the world. While most shipbuilding projects focus on these carrier vessels, other commercial boats and barges that traverse inland lakes, rivers, and other waterways make up a significant portion of the industry. In addition, the oil and gas industry is consistently involved in the building and manufacturing of new vessels and hulls to serve as FPSOs, offshore platforms, drill ships, marine construction vessels, and offshore supply vessels.
Interface Consulting has experience working with clients on shipbuilding projects that have sustained increased costs, schedule delays, material delays, construction management issues, contractors’ claims, defective work, and other common claim, litigation, and arbitration issues.
