This continued partnership underscores the company’s ability to deliver quality work across various sectors. Notably, the company has successfully executed contracts in capital dredging of fishing harbours at Mangrol, been awarded with capital dredging work at Paradip Port and is now awarded with maintenance dredging work at Kandla Port, signifying its diversified portfolio and capability to meet a range of dredging needs at DCI. These repeated engagements serve as a testament to the company’s expertise and reliability, reinforcing its position as a preferred partner in the dredging industry.

Knowledge Marine & Engineering Works is engaged in the business of owning and operating of Marine Crafts for dredging along with repairs and maintenance/refits of Marine Crafts and Marine Infrastructure.
