Gulf Island Marine Fabrication, Houma LA

The long-established offshore construction company, Gulf Island Fabrication, expanded into the shipbuilding business in 2008, under the name Gulf Island LLC, changing this first to Gulf Island Marine Fabricators and later to Gulf Island Shipyards after buying Quality Shipyards and Leevac Shipyards, both of which have now been closed. The Houma shipyard was sold to Bollinger Shipyards in 2021 and Gulf Island has reverted to being an offshore construction company. See the yard from the air on Google here.
