Dales Marine Services is a ship repair and maintenance company, operating 5 dry docks in the UK.
Dales Marine was founded in 1987 by Maurice Nicol as a fabrication and repair of large industrial equipment, based in Peterhead, Aberdeenshire. The business expanded into ship repair and maintenance in the 2000s with a site at the dry dock in Aberdeen Harbour.[2] In 2020, the business was sold to H2 Equity Partners, an investment firm, in a process facilitated by Corbett Keeling.
