Gibdock ensures French con-ro departs on schedule

Gibdock, the Gibraltar-based shiprepair facility, has once again underlined its expertise and well-proven capabilities in the ro-ro cargo vessel sector by carrying out an extensive package of work on the 12,049dwt, 160m long ro-ro container ship, MN TANGARA in June and July this year. Owned by Compagnie Maritime Nantaise (CMN), the 2013-built, French flagged vessel was docked at Gibdock for a 12-day programme of works, with the client stressing there was no scope for delay in redelivery. During its time in Gibdock, MN TANGARA required an extensive amount of painting, extending over most areas of the vessel, including the hull, superstructure, funnel, crane and free-fall davits. In total, a surface area of 12,300m2 was painted by Gibdock’s repair teams over an 11-day period.
