CEO Andrew Bellamy said the contract would take the fleet of Cape Class
Patrol Boats to 10 vessels and reflected the quality and performance of
the existing fleet of ships Austal recently delivered on time and on budget. “It is also a terrific vote of confidence in Austal and the products we design, build and sustain at our Henderson shipyard in Western Australia. As Australia’s only ASX-listed prime contractor we are very well positioned to support the Commonwealth in its future continuous ship building plans,” Mr Bellamy said. Austal is also contracted to deliver two High Speed Support Vessels to the Royal Navy of Oman from its Henderson shipyard. “The two corvette-sized vessels we are building at our Australian shipyard for export to Oman next year are progressing well and demonstrate that Austal is internationally competitive when it comes to advanced manufacturing.” |
