History

In 1998 USMR acquired Norfolk Shipbuilding and Dry Dock Company (NORSHIPCO). In 2004 USMR purchased Honolulu Shipyard Inc. (HSI) for $16 million. HSI was another U.S. Navy ship repair business.

United States Marine Repair was acquired by the Carlyle Group in November 1997. Carlyle planned to float the company but instead chose to sell it to United Defense (which it partially owned) in May 2002.
