A global ferry company which requires repairs for two of its ferries has been secured by Infrastrata, owners of shipyard Harland & Wolff in Belfast Harbour.
The two-vessel deal, reports InsiderMedia, is valued at approximately £1.6m and the completion of the repair works on the vessels is expected by mid-June 2021.
John Wood, chief executive of InfraStrata, said: "I am very pleased that we have signed a two-vessel deal with our client. We are now seeing the positive effects of the UK's successful vaccination programme emerging in that clients and vessel owners are discussing and committing to larger spend profiles on their vessels.
"Going into the third and fourth quarters of this calendar year, should the vaccination programme continue to be successful and the economy continues its recovery, we should be in a position to win further contracts of larger value given that we have time and again demonstrated our technical and commercial capabilities to the satisfaction of vessel owners.
"We expect to make further announcements to the market in due course."
