Halter Marine Offshore (FGO, Signal, World Marine), Pascagoula MS
Halter Marine Offshore was created in the 1990s by Ham Marine, which later became part of Friede Goldman Offshore. It was a new facility, developed with Title XI financing for the construction, conversion and repair of offshore drilling rigs. It was acquired by Signal International in 2002 out of the bankruptcy of Friede Goldman Halter, but Signal filed for Chapter 11 in 2015 and the company was restructured at the end of that year as World Marine LLC. Most recently, World Marine sold it to VT Halter Marine, whose Pascagoula shipyard lies immediately to the north, on the west side of Bayou Casotte. See the yard from the air on Google here.
