At present Tropical Reef is the only shipyard in Cairns capable of docking ships up to 100 metres and weighing up to 3,000 tonnes. BSE is expecting its defence, commercial and tourism fleet operations will grow due to the increased level of service it will be able to provide to its customers Tropical Reef is confident that, once operational, the upgrades will increase its capability by 30 per cent and create 20 new positions, which will increase to 50 on realisation of the benefits created by this significant investment. Norship is already looking to employ and train more workers and apprentices to facilitate its long-term growth.
This will sustain immediate construction jobs in our city and create new jobs for generations to come.
#Cairns slipways upgrade#
Upgrade work will include the construction of more than 170 metres of new wharf areas electrical, fire and security system upgrades hardstand resurfacing 135 metres of extensions to existing slipway rail and new workshops. The funding will be used to upgrade the Cairns Marine Precinct, improving its capability and capacity to secure government contracts and maritime maintenance and refits well into the future.
Just over a week ago, I announced that Norship Marine, BSE Cairns Slipways and Tropical Reef Shipyard will receive around $8 million each under the Community Development Grants Program. Cairns is set to become Australia's major hub for maintenance and sustainment work on the Australian Navy and industry ships after the government delivered on its $24 million election promise.
