What We Do

Beckett Rankine is the leading UK owned maritime civil engineering consultancy. We plan, design, procure and manage the construction, restoration and repair of maritime infrastructure. Our dedicated engineers are passionate about delivering high-quality and appropriate design solutions – wherever in the world we are working.

Many Beckett Rankine designs have been ground-breaking, such as planning the world’s largest man-made harbour at Ras Laffan in Qatar, our award- winning passenger piers on the Thames, our innovative designs for retaining wall systems and our development of the COFASTRANS container handling system. We have a busy R&D programme and are active in a number of international research teams.
