Since early 1999 EPTEC has undertaken work on numerious US Navy ships in ports around Australia. This includes two visits by the Aircraft carriers, USS Constellation to both Sydney and Perth and Abraham Lincoln to Perth.

EPTEC's ability to moblise at short notice and flexibility to complete increased scope of work under difficult circumstances has been demonstrated on each occasion, servicing East and West coasts.

Vessels' short visits to port make the completion of the task on time critical. EPTEC utilised the latest abrasive recycling system in a contained environment ensuring timely completion.
