At Damen Shiprepair Amsterdam we handle vessels of up to 250 metres in length. Besides general repair and maintenance activities, we are always looking for those special projects in which our skilled employees can prove themselves to be the outstanding and professionals that they are. To get a good perspective of the kind of jobs that we undertake, please check the projects section where you can find an overview of some of our recent assignments. ‘Going the extra yard’ sums up our attitude to all the contracts that we undertake, and its success is reflected in the confidence that our clients have in our capabilities. This is demonstrated by the number that return to us with new orders and projects. This attitude is further reinforced by other factors including a belief in personal service and a closely monitored time and cost-efficient approach which, over the years, have together become a part of our DNA. We do admit however that the true foundations of this philosophy lie in the dedication of our staff and workforce, because it is they who ultimately deliver the exceptional service and quality that makes Damen Shiprepair Amsterdam the organisation that it is. Our yard in Amsterdam offers a full service on site. We adhere to the highest health, safety and environmental standards and are a flexible and flat organisation. The focus of the yard is four dry docks, the largest of which is Panamax-capable with a maximum capacity of 85,000 tonnes dwt and 250 metres in length. All docks are equipped with ample cranage ranging from 90, 60 and 40 tonnes down to a minimum of 15 tonnes. More lifting capacity is available on a project by project basis through partnerships with contractors. We are the most competitive yard in NW Europe for steelwork and we are extremely flexible, often being able to take on projects with little or no notice. Our invoicing processes are transparent, in line with the quotations given, and quotes for additional work are supplied quickly.

Damen Shiprepair Oranjewerf is located in the port of Amsterdam. It occupies a highly strategic location at the junction of the two major waterways; the IJ and the Amsterdam-Rhine Canal. The yard has a floating dock with 6.000 ton deadweight capacity and a slipway of 100 meter at its disposal. We believe in building close and enduring relationships with all our customers. A harmonious partnership leads to the best results and we aim to deliver exactly what our customers need. That’s why we work so closely with our customers and we always live up to their expectations. Successful ship repair and renovation projects are the result of harmonious collaboration between shipyard, the ship owners and the subcontractors.
