Saudi Maritime Congress

Family-owned Damen Shipyards Group has been in operation for over ninety-five years and offers maritime solutions worldwide, through design, shipbuilding, ship repair and related services. Damen operates 35 shipyards and 20 other companies in 20 countries, supported by a worldwide sales and service network. We offer direct employment to more than 12,500 people, bringing together a total production value of 2 billion euros and delivering over 100 ships in 2024.   

In addition to fellowship, craftsmanship and entrepreneurship, stewardship is a starting point for Damen. We want to be the most sustainable shipbuilder in the world. Digitalisation and standardisation of platforms are important preconditions for this. Our main activities are the design and serial construction of inventive ships by integrating diverse components and subsystems into high-quality platforms. These activities are supported by a worldwide sales and service network.  

Damen Shipyards Group focuses on niche maritime markets. On workboats for towage, dredging, offshore, fishing, aquaculture and other markets. On high-speed craft and maritime public transport. On ships for defence & security and on exclusive yachts. Apart from that we are also active in the repair and conversion of existing ships and the sale and production of components for the maritime industry.
