Based in the industrial heart of Southern Spain, Tincasur operates as a specialized engineering and maintenance provider deeply embedded in the maritime, offshore, and industrial sectors. Founded over three decades ago by José Trigo Ollero, the company originated in the docks of Cádiz and Algeciras, initially delivering twenty-four-hour repair services to local fleets. Since those early days, it has evolved from a family-oriented business into a comprehensive technical partner for shipyards, navies, and private operators, maintaining a significant presence in the Bay of Cádiz and extending its capabilities to hubs like Marina Barcelona.
The company’s core identity revolves around complex mechanical and structural engineering. In the naval sector, Tincasur performs a wide array of construction, repair, and conversion tasks. Its technicians are particularly noted for their expertise in propulsion systems, managing intricate operations such as the alignment of main engines, tail shafts, and reduction gears. The company’s workshops handle the overhaul of 2-stroke and 4-stroke engines, auxiliary generators, and compressors, serving a diverse client base that includes ferry operators, the Spanish Navy, and mega-yacht owners.
Beyond standard vessel maintenance, Tincasur has demonstrated significant versatility in the offshore domain. The firm has executed large-scale projects involving the transformation of oil rigs from drilling to production platforms and the conversion of tankers for alternative uses. Its industrial capacity allows for the fabrication and assembly of heavy structures, including jacket components and bases for offshore wind farms. This ability to bridge the gap between traditional ship repair and heavy industrial fabrication has enabled the company to participate in high-stakes energy and infrastructure projects.
Tincasur also functions as an authorized technical service provider for major marine engine and gearbox manufacturers, solidifying its role as a key link in the maritime supply chain. Its teams are equipped to deploy specialized solutions such as laser alignment and resin chocking, ensuring precise installation for critical machinery. By combining rapid-response repair teams with long-term engineering support, Tincasur supports the operational continuity of vessels and industrial facilities, maintaining its status as a multifaceted reference point within the European maritime engineering landscape.
