Today we remember those we lost; may we never forget.

Today we welcomed the USNS Supply (T-AOE 6) to Alabama Shipyard and the great city of Mobile. The AOE class vessels are the largest combat logistics ships for the Navy and their purpose is to restock, refuel, and rearm Navy ships.

It’s time to kick off another exciting conversion! Last week, Alabama Shipyard welcomed its third Offshore Supply Vessel (OSV), and work is already underway to transform it into a ferry, just like its two sister ships. The initial step involved moving the OSV onto land to facilitate the main conversion work. We began by docking the vessel on the Dry Dock Alabama and transferring it onto a barge. Using Self-Propelled Modular Transporters (SPMTs), we carefully rolled the OSV off the barge and onto land. The process went off without a hitch, thanks to the expertise and dedication of our talented employees and subcontractors!

Thank you, U.S. Representative Barry Moore, for visiting Alabama Shipyard last week and helping us celebrate our 5 year anniversary and the hard working employees who have been here since the beginning.
