About Us

Ferguson Marine (Port Glasgow) Ltd is a non-departmental public body (NDPB) and has been an integral part of shipbuilding on the River Clyde since 1903.

Over the past few years Ferguson Marine (FMPG) has pushed the boundaries of innovation, particularly in the development of green propulsion technologies – first diesel-electric hybrid and then liquefied natural gas, demonstrated by the recent successful launches of MV Catriona and MV Glen Sannox. Next on the hit-list is hydrogen, a gaseous fuel that can be produced using curtailed renewable energy, stored and then used on board a zero-emission vessel with fresh water as the only by-product.

Ferguson Marine spend around £50-£60m a year buying materials, services and subcontractor services and actively work with other public sector bodies to obtain best value for our customers.
