Kishorn Port Limited Wins Prestigious 'Sustainability in Decommissioning' Award

Kishorn Port Limited (KPL) has won the prestigious “Sustainability in Decommissioning Award” at the recent Decom Mission Dinner and Award Ceremony, held in Aberdeen.

The category celebrated the progress reached to date on the regeneration of the Kishorn Port yard and dry dock, which facilitates the decommissioning of oil and gas structures in a safe and environmentally friendly manner while maximising material recycling potential. The accolade is a testament to the hard work of all past and present KPL team members. The win is also a fitting milestone as this year marks the 50th anniversary of the yard’s original opening back in 1976 by King Charles III (then the Prince of Wales).

Steve Welham, Head of Safety & Compliance, received the award on behalf of KPL and commented:

“I was both humbled and honoured to accept the Sustainability in Decommissioning Award on behalf of the whole team at Kishorn Port. This award is a testament to our ongoing contributions to the circular economy whilst keeping sustainability across all port and dry dock operations to the fore and recognises many years of regeneration to position the Port to meet the needs of the energy transition.”

A great evening was had by all attendees, and KPL extends its congratulations to fellow finalists Able UK and ASCO on their achievements.
