Shipbuilding Programme
SAFEEN Drydocks held the Keel Laying and Steel Cutting Ceremony for its 18-vessel newbuilding programme for OilBank Logistics Services and Nigeria Ports Authority.
The ceremony covered two stages of the programme’s construction. The first four 14-metre mooring boats reached the keel-laying stage, while steel cutting marked the commencement of fabrication for the remaining 14 vessels.
Construction and Classification
All 18 vessels are being constructed under Bureau Veritas (BV) classification, reflecting the programme’s requirements for quality, safety and technical standards.
The ceremony was attended by leadership and representatives from AD Ports Group, SAFEEN Drydocks, OilBank Logistics Services, Nigeria Ports Authority, PMES and Bureau Veritas, alongside maritime clients and partners.
The programme reflects the ongoing development of SAFEEN Drydocks’ shipbuilding capabilities and the collaboration between the organisations involved in delivering the vessels.
