TUGDOCK

An innovative, modular floating dry dock offering cost-effective transportable solutions for vessel and structure lifting

Tugdock is the world’s first road transportable floating dry dock. It is a patented modular floating dry dock which is less expensive to buy, costs less to operate and is far simpler to use than any present drydock system.

SME supported Tugdock with the development of its modular drydock. This involved stability calculations and design support, where hydrostatics were performed using the stability software GHS and docking simulation in OrcaFlex.

Deck dimensions can be increased or decreased to suit the size and shape of the vessel or floating structure to be lifted. And it is transportable as shipping containers for cost effect global delivery.
