Surface Ships

The crew’s safety and confidence that all equipment on the ship will perform as expected when it matters most. A surface vessel can be far from its home port, so reliability is paramount. That is why when Hale Hamilton High-Pressure equipment is installed on any platform, the user gets a quality-designed and manufactured product.

Hale Hamilton products all undergo a rigorous testing programme designed alongside the Shipbuilder.

We work closely as a trusted partner with customers and end users to meet the high levels of quality control that meet the technical needs of every application.

All of our equipment is accompanied by a statement that it has been cleaned, built and tested to the current Hale Hamilton test specification linked to that product.

Longevity

The life for a surface vessel can be up to 25 years and more with through life extensions. Products need to be serviceable within that time. At Hale Hamilton, instead of making products obsolete, we like to standardise as much as possible across platforms so that products can be repaired and parts replaced throughout the whole life of the vessel. Where possible, we work alongside the platform operators to ensure that any design enhancements on our equipment are shared with all operators.

Our dedicated research and development team works to stay ahead of what our naval customers need, developing products for new platforms with greater capability.
