Turnagain Marine takes pride in our cutting-edge marine equipment, specifically designed for severe conditions and remote operations. We employ state-of-the-art drilling equipment, designed to drill through a vast array of soil types and rock conditions. Though in use in Norway for several years, we are the first U.S. contractor on the West Coast to invest in this new technology. Our primary barge, the Brightwater, is a 280' x 76' ABS barge with a 350 ton ringer crane on deck. The ringer crane has ten times more capacity than a 225 ton crawler at 100 feet.
Turnagain Marine’s crews take pride in workplace safety, and it shows: Two and a half years, nearly 200,000 work hours, with no recordable safety incidents. Our hats are off to the craftsmen and field management responsible for this impressive accomplishment.
