UK-headquartered ship repair, conversion and marine specialist A&P Group has completed a 13-day maintenance program for Mozart containership at its Falmouth facility.

Built at South Korean Hyundai Mipo Dockyard in 2007, Mozart is owned by Embarcadero Maritime III, a joint venture between the UK’s Borealis Maritime and the US-based KKR.

The 39,339 dwt boxship arrived in Falmouth earlier this month for its special survey docking period.

A&P Group’s works included hull preparation and painting, minor shell steel renewals, electric motor overhauls and hatch steel and rubber seal repairs and renewals.

The company also carried out a tail shaft seal modification to conform to global environmental pollution control regulations.

A&P Group operates seven dry docks across three locations in the UK and has a sister business in Australia that provides ship repair services and support to the Royal Australian Navy.
