Carver Maritime provided the stone to Ragnar Benson Construction, the General Contractor for Phase 1 of the upcoming Navy Base Intermodal Facility. This stretch of rail line connects to the new Hugh Leatherman Terminal that Carver Maritime laid the groundwork for upon arrival to Charleston.
Both the Navy Base Intermodal Facility and the Hugh Leatherman Terminal will allow the Charleston region to facilitate the movement of goods and commerce over rail within the state and throughout the Southeast region of the United States, stimulating economic development within the region and providing connections to key regional infrastructure.
Carver Maritime completed a 2.8 million dollar pipe welding project for Weeks Marine. A 656ft cargo vessel, The Golden Ray, overturned in Georgia and had to be cut apart. Carver Maritime created the pieces necessary for the retaining system used to access and cut up the vessel.

Carver Maritime is currently bringing in containers of material from around the world that will be transloaded and stored in our warehouse facilities for future delivery. Carver Maritime handles the cargo from the port of export, to the port of import, to the point of rest, and to the end customer if needed.
Carver Maritime Charleston recently invested in spreader bars and remote-control electric hooks, which were tested out in early October with Charleston's first bagged cement vessel that was 100% self-performed by Carver Companies. Carver Stevedoring handled the vessel operations and Carver Maritime managed the overall operation and directly handled the movement of the product from end of hook to point of rest. The project was lead on the ship by Will Leveritt and on the ground by Jeff Foote. The project was a complete success, moving 3,000+ metric tons per day while maintaining a clean and safe operation. Carver himself even helped out by rigging bags in the holds of the ship.
