RVT Group Sites:
Every marine construction project is a high-stakes operation. Whether you’re building new port terminals, modernising shipyards, or expanding naval facilities, your team is working in an environment where hazards are constant. Confined spaces, airborne contaminants, and excessive noise are risks that can slow down work, threaten compliance, and put workers in danger. At RVT, we understand these challenges firsthand, and we help integrate safety into your project from the ground up through comprehensive marine construction hazard management.
Contractors are not only evaluated based on their ability to get the job done but also on how well they manage risks. A single lapse in safety in shipbuilding, port expansions, and defence infrastructure projects could mean fines, delays, damaged reputations, or worse, severe health risks.
With Australia’s Naval Shipbuilding Plan (NSP) and Defence Strategic Review (DSR) driving billions in investment, the stakes are even higher. Government contracts for naval ships and submarines are shaping the industry, and the companies securing these projects are the ones demonstrating reliability, compliance, and innovation. If you’re competing for these contracts, effective hazard management is a strategic advantage.
Ensure that hazardous substances, such as fibreglass dust, are extracted and filtered at source
Extract hot and volatile fumes with suitable extraction equipment, and use a specialist filter for welding fumes
Ensure the work area remains well ventilated; force in clean air and purge out contaminated air to maintain good quality air

No two marine projects are the same, but the hazards are always there. From shipbuilding and facility expansions to infrastructure upgrades, managing workplace risks requires a system-wide approach. That’s why we provide high-performance, long-term hire solutions designed specifically for large-scale marine environments.
Ventilation & Air Quality Control
Confined spaces and dry docks can become dangerous without proper airflow. Overcome this challenge with an underground air ventilation system that can maintain a steady supply of clean air, protecting workers from toxic buildup. We have a wide range of marine construction ventilation systems that can force clean air in and purge out contaminated air to maintain good quality air.
Fume & Exhaust Extraction
Welding, coating, and diesel-powered machinery release hazardous fumes that can linger and cause long-term health issues. Our fume extraction system and exhaust fume extraction system remove contaminants like fibreglass dust at the source.
Noise Reduction
Shipyards and port construction sites are among the loudest workplaces in the industry, with constant machinery, metal fabrication, and heavy equipment in operation. Our noise control solutions help reduce excessive sound levels, creating a safer environment for your team. Effective marine construction noise management also minimises disruption to surrounding communities and ensures compliance with environmental regulations.
Dust Control
Sandblasting, cutting, and metal fabrication generate airborne dust that can lead to respiratory illnesses. Our dust control systems help prevent exposure and maintain air quality.
