The Bull Arm site is Atlantic Canada's largest industrial fabrication site strategically located in Canada's most easterly province, Newfoundland and Labrador, 150 kilometres from the capital city of St. John's. Close to international shipping lanes and Europe, the site has unobstructed, deep-water access to the open Atlantic Ocean. Centrally located in the North Atlantic to service major developments in the North Sea, Gulf of Mexico and West Africa. Bull Arm has fully integrated and comprehensive infrastructure to support fabrication and assembly of three key project functions, simultaneously, in three separate theatres: Topsides Fabrication and Assembly; Drydock Fabrication and Construction; and Deepwater Site.
This world-class facility is located close to the communities of Sunnyside, Arnold's Cove and Come By Chance and has provided employment and economic spin-off benefits through the purchase of goods and service to this area. The site has provided broader benefits to the province through new infrastructure, technical knowledge and expertise, technology transfer, and an experienced labour force.
The Bull Arm facility is an important asset for the province to the development of the oil and gas industry in Newfoundland and Labrador and the advancement of the province's fabrication capacity.
The transfer of the site to be operated as a subsidiary of Nalcor ensures this key asset is utilized to maximize the benefits to the province from the number of large-scale construction and fabrication projects on the horizon - locally and around the world.
