As CEO, he oversees the company’s operations and manages complex projects across the Gulf South from start to finish.
Fortier’s companies utilize a fleet of earth-moving equipment for projects throughout the Gulf Coast, including custom-built heavy machinery designed to execute tasks safely.
Fortier’s work encompasses a range of specialized activities tailored to each project’s unique requirements. His company has been involved in marine construction, including designing and constructing ports, harbors, offshore platforms, bridges, jetties, and other water-related structures.
Dredging is a key part of many projects. It involves removing sediment from the seabed to deepen harbors or prepare foundations for marine structures. Dredging vessels carry out this work, ensuring the navigability of ports and shipping channels. Additionally, Fortier’s projects involve the construction of offshore platforms, which are crucial for the oil, gas, and renewable energy industries. His crew ensures these platforms are resilient against harsh waves, strong winds, and saltwater corrosion.
