Geomarine wins engineering award for Hanois Lighthouse work

Published

The Guernsey company, part of the Garenne Group, took the Institution of Civil Engineers South West award for the best project under £1m.

The Hanois Lighthouse project saw the repair and stabilisation of the boat landing steps at the lighthouse, with difficult access in a tidal range of up to 10m. The team working on the project had to live and work in very challenging conditions. Geomarine worked with local consultant engineers DLA to design the repair work for the client, Trinity House.

'Hanois Lighthouse is an iconic local landmark, steeped in history and presenting a challenging working environment. It utilised all of Geomarine's expertise and was an extremely satisfying project,' said Geomarine CEO Ian Gilmour.
