Based in Haifa, Israel, Nahshon Marine Construction Ltd serves as a specialized contractor dedicated to complex maritime engineering, commercial diving, and port infrastructure development. The company functions as a critical technical resource for the region's maritime sector, executing large-scale civil engineering projects that require operations both above and below the water’s surface. Its work supports the expansion and maintenance of essential supply chain hubs, including major national ports, military facilities, and industrial terminals.
The company’s core operational focus encompasses the construction, rehabilitation, and maintenance of marine structures. Nahshon Marine Construction has been actively involved in some of the most significant port development initiatives in the Eastern Mediterranean, such as the construction of the new Bay Port (Namal HaMifratz) in Haifa and the South Port in Ashdod. Within these massive logistical projects, the company handles intricate tasks such as the installation of tie-rod systems, the underwater welding of structural elements, and the precise sinking of caissons to form quay walls. Its engineering teams also manage the laying and compaction of underwater substrates, ensuring the stability of breakwaters and berthing facilities against the forces of the sea.
Beyond heavy construction, the company maintains a high-level commercial diving division capable of executing hazardous and technically demanding underwater tasks. This division is staffed by veteran marine specialists, many of whom possess backgrounds in elite naval units, bringing discipline and operational rigor to civilian projects. Their capabilities extend to underwater cutting and welding, pile driving, coating applications, and rigorous infrastructure inspections. The firm is also equipped to handle salvage operations, including the recovery of sunken vessels and equipment, often working in challenging or toxic environments where standard operational procedures are insufficient.
To support these diverse activities, Nahshon Marine Construction utilizes a fleet of dedicated marine assets, including powerful tugboats and heavy-duty barges designed for offshore work. The company operates under strict international safety and quality standards, holding certifications from major maritime classification societies. By integrating heavy logistical support with precise underwater craftsmanship, the company ensures the continuity and safety of vital maritime assets, from the foundations of commercial ports to the integrity of subsea pipelines.
