We Repair and Build World-Class Vessels

Established in 1978, Oman Shipyard has evolved into the premier maritime engineering, repair, and shipbuilding powerhouse in the Middle East. With a total workforce of over 2,000 highly skilled professionals representing 26 different nationalities, our operational scale and technical capacity allow us to handle the most demanding marine projects concurrently, ensuring minimal off-hire time for your fleet.

Operating across three strategic UAE locations - Dubai, Sharjah, and Fujairah - we keep all key competencies in-house. From advanced naval architecture, CAD drafting, and detailed engineering to precision steel fabrication, pipe fitting, sandblasting, and electrical rewinding, our integrated approach guarantees rapid turnaround times and uncompromised quality standards.

Our commitment to excellence is backed by state-of-the-art infrastructure. We possess high-capacity syncrolifts, multiple drydocks accommodating various vessel sizes, covered fabrication shops, and class-certified welding procedures. This robust infrastructure enables us to execute projects ranging from minor afloat repairs to full-scale vessel conversions and major structural rebuilding.

24/7 Global Maritime Support & Rapid Response

In the global maritime industry, every hour of unscheduled downtime represents massive financial loss. That is why Oman Shipyard's dedicated emergency repair divisions, mobile diving units, and afloat riding squads operate 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, at all major global shipping routes.

Whether your vessel requires immediate collision damage repair, structural welding, main engine troubleshooting at anchorage, or critical underwater hull cleaning and propeller polishing, our teams are fully equipped to deploy globally within hours of contact. We bring our expertise directly to your vesselâ€”in port, at anchorage, or during transitâ€”to keep your fleet moving safely.
