Oceans, seas, lakes and rivers offer growing possibilities in the areas of trade, food, energy and recreation. To ensure global prosperity for next generations and keep the earth habitable with an ever-increasing population, it is essential to utilise and protect these possibilities as efficiently and responsibly as possible.

Damen provides unprecedented maritime solutions for this, through design, shipbuilding, ship repair and related services. We offer versatile platforms that enable our customers to be successful and that raise the standard in terms of safety, reliability, efficiency and sustainability. We want to become the most sustainable shipbuilders in the world. 

In the previous century, we revolutionized shipbuilding. Thanks to standardisation, we were able to supply our customers with better ships, faster. More than 90 years and 6,500 ships later, the importance of standardisation is only increasing in the light of zero-emissions and digitalisation. 

We do not build our ships alone, but together with an extensive network from the international maritime cluster. We firmly believe in the power of sharing. It means that we also use our craftsmanship to build platforms on production facilities that are not ours. In this way, through knowledge transfer, we not only contribute to better, safer and more eco-friendly ships, but also to sustainable local development and prosperity.

We are a family owned business and stand for fellowship, craftsmanship, entrepreneurship and stewardship. Our playing field is the world. Our horizon is the long term. We firmly believe in our team, but also in the strength of the individual. Each colleague is an entrepreneur, focused on ensuring truly satisfied clients and making our contribution to a better world. In every aspect of our business the next generation is our starting point.

The next piece in the puzzle. 

The first ASD Tug 1810 has been launched at Damen Shipyards Changde in China. 

With its compact hull form, the ASD Tug 1810 is the ideal solution for today’s port paradox. 

As seagoing vessels get ever larger, tugs need to be increasingly compact with more power – with no compromise in safety and sustainability. 

With up to 30 tonnes of bollard pull, exceptional manoeuvrability and just 18 metres in length, the ASD Tug 1810 meets the challenge head on.

Pushing the boundaries of ocean exploration! 
The series OceanXplorers will premier on 18 August on the National Geographic channel, streaming on Disney+ and Hulu. 

The show charts the adventures of the OceanXplorer research vessel. 
We’re proud of our role in this exciting story. 

Damen Shiprepair was the contracted party for the owner and his team, in the conversion of the platform supply vessel Volstad Surveyor, transforming her into the OceanXplorer and preparing her for her work undertaking groundbreaking scientific research in our oceans and bringing the results to the world – in real time.

We hope you enjoy this as much as we do.

Happy Birthday Sparky! 

The Port of Auckland recently celebrated the second anniversary of their vessel Sparky, the fully electric RSD-E Tug 2513. 

Since her arrival in New Zealand, Sparky has assisted over 1,400 ship moves – at half the operational cost of a comparable conventional vessel and with a saving of 465 tonnes of CO2 emissions per year. 

The emissions free tug provides up to 70 tonnes of bollard pull and can carry out up to four towing operations before recharging in just two hours.

Welcome to the family! 

We are proud to be building the first two Damen vessels to enter the fleet of the Sri Lanka Shipping Company Limited.

The ASD Tugs 2312 have recently been launched ahead of schedule at Damen Song Cam Shipyard in Vietnam. 

The vessels, named Aquarius and Capricorn, are built to a modern design featuring digital connectivity, fuel efficiency and low emissions performance. 

Once completed they will enter into service, carrying out operations in ports in South-East Asia.

Straightforward. Reliable. Robust. Ferries you can count on. 

The Damen Ferries 3508 operating in Penang combine optimal efficiency with a robust design ideally suited to intensive, everyday use. 

The double-ended vessels feature two azimuth thrusters for outstanding manoeuvrability and a drive-through for rapid embarkation.

Taking charge of the future. 

Volta 1, Europe’s first fully electric tug, has successfully completed her sea trials in Vietnam. The RSD-E Tug 2513 is being built at Damen Song Cam Shipyard for the Port of Antwerp-Bruges. 

During the next stages of the project, we will provide training to the tug’s crew. They will learn all they need to operate the new vessel, including charging procedures. 

Volta 1 is planned to be delivered at the end of this year. She is part of an order for six, environmentally focused tugs that will provide a significant sustainability boost to the Port’s operations.

Keeping your options open. 

The future’s not ours to see. That’s why we have developed the ASD Tug 2812 FF – a vessel that keeps things Fuel Flexible. 

Whatever tomorrow brings in terms of fuel demands and availability, the ASD Tug 2812 FF will be ready. 

The tug is prepared for fast, cost efficient adaption to the fuels of the future, as soon as the picture becomes clear.

Dunkirk’s icon in the dock! 

We’re happy to welcome Communauté urbaine de Dunkerque's elegant Duchess Anne at our Dunkirk yard for a 5-month docking. 

This graceful lady is a symbol of the city and the largest museum sailing ship in France. During her docking, our team will be busy with the removal of 300 tons of concrete ballast, steelworks and a full sandblasting and repainting. 

This comprehensive renovation program is scheduled for completion in time for Tall Ships Race 2025, which will take place in Dunkirk next summer.

Making an impression. 

Thijs van Weelden can remember well his first visit to Damen. He was just 7 years old when his father Jan, who has worked at the company since 1990, took him along. It made a big impression on him and he returned to Damen aged 14 to carry out an internship in IT support. 

In turn, Thijs also made a good impression – when he entered the world of work, he received an invitation to come back to Damen on a permanent basis. It came as no surprise to Jan: “I could see it coming. I could see a Damen man in Thijs."
