Capability

Fleet, plant and instruments.

What we own, what it lifts, how deep it drills and how accurately it measures — the page every procurement officer opens first.

The facility

Our own quay in Carenage.

With more than 26 years of experience and reliability to guide us, Capital Signal is pleased to offer expanded berthing capabilities at our waterfront facility in Carenage, Trinidad. We can mobilise vessels, barges and small jack-up rigs on very short notice — independent of the schedules, problems or backlogs of a typical third-party facility, and more economically too.
