The Case:
Bordelon Marine offers a full range of services including: construction support, exploration, production, Survey and ROV support, topside mobilization and fabrication management. In 2011, the company opened a new state-of-the-art shipyard facility, in Houma, LA to build its new and versatile deep water DP2 PSV and MPSV series called the Stingray 260 Class. Bordelon Marine recently took delivery of the M/V Shelia Bordelon, an Ultra-Light Intervention Vessel (ULIV). Named in honor of Shelia Harasimowicz, Wes Bordelon’s mother-in-law, Bordelon Marine will donate a portion of the profits from the M/V Shelia Bordelon to the New Orleans affiliate of Susan G. Komen for the Cure.
