Some of our projects

Floating Marinas

Floating Marinas

For a major UAE client, DSBE delivered the full design, fabrication, installation, and commissioning of floating marina infrastructure, integrating robust pontoon systems, engineered connections, and dependable utilities.

Each component was manufactured to tight tolerances and installed in active coastal waters, ensuring a stable, durable, and high-performing marina environment.

Mubarak Supporter

Turnkey build by DSBE, this 77-metre multipurpose DP2 work barge is designed for serious offshore performance. It combines dynamic positioning with
an 8-point mooring system and 22-metre spuds for absolute stability during critical marine operations.

On board, it accommodates over 180 people safely
and comfortably, supported by full workshops, medical facilities, and a certified helideck.

Burj Al Arab North Terrace

Through dynamic positioning, precision piling, and controlled modular placement, DSBE helped deliver a terrace that extended the iconic Burj Al Arab with engineering certainty and architectural elegance.

Working in an environment where coastal currents, vessel draft, and extremely tight tolerances left no room for drift, the project demanded meticulous planning.
