MARINE
Patriot Construction and Industrial LLC now offers Marine Services throughout the Gulf South.

< See us in action


In July of 2018, Patriot Construction and LeBlanc Marine LLC merged forces. Patriot Construction and Industrial believes that the merge with LeBlanc Marine provides Patriot Construction access to a greater number of resources in order to increase our scope of services to our customers, while still being able to provide the quality of service that the customers have come to expect from LeBlanc Marine since 2004.
Patriot Construction and Industrial’s Marine Division, formerly known as LeBlanc Marine, was founded in 2004 by Ben LeBlanc. The Marine Division is strategically placed at the Port of Iberia, which is located in South Louisiana between New Orleans and Houston, TX, and is home to one of the state’s busiest industrial and manufacturing sites of oil and gas fabrication and production. 

Patriot Construction’s Marine Division specializes in barge towing and shifting, barge fleeting, barge repair and inspection, cargo handling, barge cleaning and special marine projects such as coastal restoration and construction throughout the Gulf South.
