class=\"lead mb-7\">The contracts underscore shipyard expertise in complex vessel fabrication and highlight the UAE\u2019s growing prominence as a shipbuilding hub<\/p>\n<div class=\"font-size-base\">\n<p><strong>Abu Dhabi, UAE \u2013 4th June 2026<\/strong>: SAFEEN Drydocks, a shipbuilding, repair and maintenance company, has secured two major vessel construction contracts valued at AED 1.3 Billion (USD 354 million) in total, marking the largest awards secured by SAFEEN Drydocks to date and reinforcing the UAE\u2019s growing position as a shipbuilding hub.<\/p>\n<p>SAFEEN Drydocks is a joint venture between AD Ports Group (ADX: ADPORTS) and Premier Marine Engineering Services, operating within Noatum Maritime\u2019s portfolio, as part of its broader offering of integrated maritime services.<\/p>\n<p>The first project includes the design and fabrication of four 140-metre multipurpose vessels for AD Ports Group, representing one of the largest maritime vessel projects to be undertaken in the UAE. Supporting a range of cargo and logistics operations, each will have capacity for 105 passengers, up to 300 containers, including more than 100 reefer plugs, as well as high and heavy cargo, and up to 1000 cars and 100 trailers.<\/p>\n<p>The second award relates to the construction of 18 specialised marine support units for Nigeria\u2019s Oilbank Logistics Services Ltd, including tugboats and pilot boats of various sizes. These will support port operations and offshore logistics in Nigeria and represent one of the biggest international vessel programmes secured by SAFEEN Drydocks.<\/p>\n<p>SAFEEN Drydocks has rapidly expanded its ability to deliver complex newbuild and repair programmes. Operating across facilities in the UAE and Spain, including its shipyard at Khalifa Port and the recently acquired Balenciaga Shipyard, the company combines multi-disciplinary engineering, modular construction methods, precision fabrication and a century of shipbuilding expertise.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Captain Ammar Al Shaiba, CEO - Maritime &amp; Shipping Cluster, AD Ports Group<\/strong>, said: \u201cThese contract awards demonstrate SAFEEN Drydocks\u2019 ability to deliver complex vessel construction programmes for both local and international customers. From multipurpose commercial vessels to specialised marine support assets, the projects demonstrate the strength and versatility of our shipbuilding capabilities in the UAE. Expanding in-country capacity remains strategically important, supporting industrial growth, strengthening resilience across the maritime sector, and reinforcing the UAE\u2019s position as an emerging regional shipbuilding hub.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Biodun Otunola, Executive Director \u2013 Oilbank Logistics Services Ltd<\/strong>, said: \u201cThis contract represents an important step in strengthening our marine operations and supporting the long-term development of our port and offshore infrastructure. SAFEEN Drydocks demonstrated a strong understanding of our operational requirements and the technical expertise to deliver a project of this scale, and we look forward to bringing these vessels into service.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The awards reflect the growing depth of the UAE\u2019s shipbuilding ecosystem, where facilities such as SAFEEN Drydocks are playing an increasingly central role in delivering advanced vessels, supporting the localisation of expertise and the UAE\u2019s ambition to become a regional hub for maritime manufacturing.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","intro_text_iframe":""},"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/wpvip.adportsgroup.com\/noatummaritime\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/50\/2026\/08\/dji_0240_retouched.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wpvip.adportsgroup.com\/noatummaritime\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/143","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wpvip.adportsgroup.com\/noatummaritime\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wpvip.adportsgroup.com\/noatummaritime\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wpvip.adportsgroup.com\/noatummaritime\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/51"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wpvip.adportsgroup.com\/noatummaritime\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=143"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/wpvip.adportsgroup.com\/noatummaritime\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/143\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":147,"href":"https:\/\/wpvip.adportsgroup.com\/noatummaritime\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/143\/revisions\/147"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wpvip.adportsgroup.com\/noatummaritime\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/145"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/wpvip.adportsgroup.com\/noatummaritime\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=143"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wpvip.adportsgroup.com\/noatummaritime\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=143"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wpvip.adportsgroup.com\/noatummaritime\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=143"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
