Adelaide Ship Construction International Pty. Ltd. was founded in 1980 by Mr. Joe Glamocak to fabricate steel structures, and to build and modify vessels for the Australian fishing fleet. With the successful completion of some 33 commercial vessel projects during the 1980's, the company looked to diversify and expand market scope. Early in 1992, Adelaide Ship Construction International was formalised for the purpose of building vessels for the international market. MOST RECENTLY ASCI now specialise in the construction, modification, and repair of steel and aluminium vessels up to 1200 tonnes. With the modification or construction of some 50 vessels to date behind us, 1995 saw the first of a series of New Generation Prawn Trawlers emerge from the yard. Constructed of steel and aluminium, they are characterised by design and construction features which provide increased speed, fuel efficiency, and steadiness at sea. As well as new construction, in 1997, ASCI completed major modifications to Stern Trawlers, as well as a Tuna Purse Seiner for export to Europe, and various commercial and fishing vessels for the Australian market. CAPABILITIES PROFILE Adelaide Ship Construction International Pty. Ltd. ( ASCI ), is the largest Ship Yard of its kind in the State of South Australia. Favourably positioned on the north arm of the Port Adelaide River, ASCI offers a comprehensive service from design, to corrosion control and painting, and has the advantage of several large under-cover building areas, as well as four slipways. The Port of Adelaide in South Australia is recognised to be one of the most productive and efficient city ports in the world, and ASCI is located within close proximity to all port services and facilities. To date, vessels constructed or modified at the ASCI shipyard have ranged from twenty metre fishing vessels through to 73 metre cruise vessels of steel and almunium composite. Also included in ASCI's portfolio are passenger craft, ferries and tugs. The fifty six metre Tuna Purse Seiner 'ZORA', constructed by ASCI in 1989, remains the largest fishing vessel built in Australia. Adelaide Ship Construction International builds vessels to classification Society With the South Australian Government and Department of Tertiary and Further Education (TAFE), ASCI has piloted training and study courses to ensure our labour force is amongst the most qualified and knowledgable internationally. In response to Australia's growing defence needs and requirements for high performance aluminium vessels, training in aluminium welding technology has been a top priority, and the company has now diversified to specialise in welding and fabrication processes in aluminium to satisfy stringent U.S. Military Standards. Having already fabricated extensive aluminium works for Naval Vessels and inplemented strict ISO Quality Assurance proceedures to all facets of the operation, the company was awarded the contract for slipping repair and refit of Her Majesty's Australian Ship for the Department of Defence (Navy) SA.
