Lancaster (UK) based, First Subsea is the world's leading supplier and developer of ball and taper Ballgrab® connectors. 

Founded as BSW Limited in 1983, the company created the world’s first subsea ball and taper lifting device which was subsequently patented. BSW then became incorporated in 1994 and then acquired by the First Tech Group in 2004. As part of the First Tech Group, BSW was rebranded as First Subsea in 2009.

First Subsea's patented Ballgrab® ball and taper connector technology is used for deepwater moorings, ROVless / diverless bend stiffener connectors for production risers and umbilical's, pipeline recovery and repair tools, buoy pull-in tools and drill pipe handling. Ballgrab® connectors have a proven history with over 700 systems deployed into a multitude of markets.

Recently the connector technology has been applied to the development of quick release systems for arctic moorings, and the offshore renewables markets. The company has also entered the drilling equipment market with the development of ball and taper pipe casing handling and floor slip tools.

In 2013, First Subsea achieved ABS 2009 Approval for its mooring connectors, the culmination of many years of financial investment and time and effort by our dedicated team of engineers. Thus, customers can be assured of the quality and engineering integrity of First Subsea's connectors as operators look to extend the life of their deepwater moorings.

First Subsea offers a wide range of facilities including:

• Design and Engineering
• Project Management
• Testing Facilities
• Research and Development

First Subsea also has sales offices worldwide.

Fraserburgh Harbour is a diverse and busy Trust Port benefiting from a large, sheltered bay.

We are ideally positioned for fishing grounds, at a supreme location for many ScotWind awarded sites, and near to the North Sea oil and gas fields including INTOG and decommissioning. Our location also makes Fraserburgh well placed for cargo trade with Scandinavia and the Baltic Sea ports. Fraserburgh is the home of Moray East Offshore Windfarm Marine Base with significant and valuable experience in supporting the establishment of an O&M base.

Our Masterplan (2021) gives a strategic framework for the physical development of the harbour over the next 20 years, to support growth in existing markets as well as diversify our business. The harbour and its diverse supply chain are socially and economically connected to Fraserburgh and the Masterplan will play a fundamental role in the future prosperity and sustainability of the town and surrounding communities.

We welcome enquiries on harbour facilities, development land and our future growth plans.
