Vietnamese Parliament Members visit Lisnave

Last September, a delegation of Parliament Members of the Vietnam National Assembly, headed by its Vice-President, Mr. Nguyen Duc Kien, visited Lisnave Shipyards facilities, at Mitrena, in Setúbal, where apart from a detailed visit to the company facilities, they tried to identify themselves with the actual Lisnave reality and with its potential in future.

Business at Lisnave in the first nine months of 2009 with a slight decrease

BReflecting the present situation of the World Economy with a general reduction of shipping demand, Lisnave has reported a slight decrease of repair activity during the first nine months of 2009. A total of 92 vessels were contracted during the period for maintenance/repair works. Business volumes has also a slight decrease, due to a work volume reduction carried out on each vessel.
During this period, Mitrena Yard carried out repairs onboard of all types of vessels, including tankers, cruise vessels, dredgers, bulk carriers, containerships, LPG/LNG carriers and general cargo vessels. It’s important to refer that of the 92 ships repaired, a total of 50 shipowners/managers from 20 countries were represented. Singapore owners/managers supplied 15 projects with 9 from Germany, Greece, Denmark and Norway. This clearly illustrates Lisnave competitiveness in the global ship repair market.

Despite the big number of “lay up” vessels, that originates lower maritime freight rates and a strong yard’s competition, mainly with East European yards, that increased their repair activity versus shipbuilding, Lisnave repeated business shows the credibility and confidence relied on Portuguese yard by a large group of shipowners/managers. So, in this period, Lisnave had repeated work coming from Singapore’s AET Shipmanagement, Cyprus’ Unicom Management, Germany’s Chemikalen Seetransport , Greece’s OSG, Italia’s Carbofin SPA and Fratelli D’Amico and Norway’s BW Gas and Kristian Gerhard Jebsen, UK’s Mol Tankship and V Ships.

Some major repair projects were carried out during this time, such as the “Lange Wapper” and “Pearl River” dredgers, tankers “Eco Europe” and “ Genmar Horn”, Ro-Ro “Lilleborg” and the repairs’s conclusion of PDV Marine’s tanker “Negra Matea”, one of the four vessels awarded by Venezuela .
