Dry dock refloating

In July 2019, the Conquest MB1 was contracted to refloat a 982 feet (300m) long by 228 feet (70m) wide 25,000t dry dock that had suffered irreversible structural failure and flooding during the docking of a large cruise ship. The engineering team of Resolve Marine formulated a plan to safely refloat the dry dock in two sections. Over the next three months, the drydock was successfully cut into two sections during a guillotine and the Conquest MB1.
