Hiro Engineering Pte. Ltd. is a Singapore-based maritime service provider that functions as a dedicated partner for the maintenance, repair, and operational support of ocean-going vessels. Incorporated in September 2017, the company operates within the bustling maritime hub of Singapore, offering a suite of technical and logistical solutions designed to support ships at anchorage and in port. While the entity itself was established in the late 2010s, it draws upon a workforce with nearly two decades of accumulated field experience in the marine sector, allowing it to execute complex engineering tasks immediately upon commencement of operations.
The core of the company's business revolves around the building, repairing, and conversion of ships, tankers, and offshore structures. Its technical teams are deployed to handle a wide spectrum of mechanical and hull repairs, ranging from the replacement of ladders, gratings, and valves to more extensive works involving funnels, gangways, and pipe supports. Beyond structural fabrication and steelwork, the firm provides essential vessel sustainment services, such as insulation installation, paneling, and ship-side name writing. A significant portion of its operational focus is directed toward surface preparation and protection, where it executes blasting, hydro-jetting, and power tooling painting to mitigate corrosion and maintain vessel integrity.
A distinct specialization within its portfolio is tank management for marine vessels. Hiro Engineering Pte. Ltd. is a National Environment Agency (NEA) registered contractor capable of performing rigorous tank cleaning, de-mucking, and de-slopping operations. These services cover both Inner Port Limits (IPL) and Outer Port Limits (OPL), ensuring that tankers and other large commercial vessels can safely dispose of sludge and residue in compliance with environmental regulations. This capability is critical for vessels preparing for dry docking or requiring cargo tank conversions.
To facilitate these offshore activities, the company manages its own fleet of utility boats. These vessels provide necessary logistical transport for equipment and personnel, bridging the gap between shore-based facilities and ships stationed at the Singapore Anchorage. The organization maintains adherence to international safety and quality standards, holding certifications such as ISO 9001 and bizSAFE status, which validate its operational protocols in the high-risk marine environment. Through these integrated services, the company supports the continuous seaworthiness of the commercial fleet passing through Southeast Asia.
