The workshop

Built around the vessel, not the department.

Jefferson Engineering and Fabrication Services keeps marine engineering, engine repair, welding, and maintenance in one crew, so a ship does not lose a day between companies.

How a job runs

Scope first. Then steel and spares.

You tell us the vessel and the fault. We look — alongside, in the workshop, or from the photos and readings you send. The scope is agreed before an engine is opened or a plate is cut.

The repair, the fabricated part, and the weld are done against that scope. What you get back is something the chief can keep: photos, the parts used, the parts still to order, and the test notes.

Three places the work sits

Desk, engine bay, fabrication floor.

Engineering desk

Symptoms become a written scope, a spares list, and a sequence that fits the time the vessel actually has.

Engine bay

Main and auxiliary diesels, pumps, coolers, and the small leaks that keep an engine from starting cleanly.

Fabrication floor

Shipping parts, pipe, inserts, and seats. Cut, welded, and checked against the place they have to fit.

Who calls

The people who have to get her away.

  • Ship owners and managers with a defect and a schedule
  • Superintendents who need one scope, not three quotes that do not meet
  • Chief engineers who want the notes left in the engine room, not only in an inbox
  • Shipyards that need an extra engine or fabrication crew for the window they already have

What we hand back

Bring the vessel. We will name the job.

A short note is enough to start: vessel, symptom, and when she has to sail.
