Brining the much needed foreign exchange to Sri Lanka, Colombo Engineering under the direction of Kiran Atapattu provided Underwater Services to four Ships during curfew hours recently.

“Unique feature of these four repairs/inspections were that they were carried during curfew hours in Colombo and Galle Harbours with necessary approvals,” said Kiran Atapattu This operation also brought in revenue to both harbours and also to other service providers.

‘TOMINI DESTINY’ came in for a Lloyds Register of Shipping in-water survey and was attended to by the Colombo Engineering team at Galle Harbour. ‘BULK JAPAN” operated by a French Company came for an underwater inspection and underwater polishing to the Colombo anchorage also included taking of fuel replenishment the same time
