Our Approach

Damen Civil offers years of extensive experience in the construction and development of shipyards in all kinds of environments, all over the world

Damen Civil offers years of extensive experience in the construction and development of shipyards in all kinds of environments, all over the world. Whether you are looking to build a new yard or to renovate or transform an existing one, we have the solutions you are looking for.

Our involvement in a project is based entirely upon your needs. To that end, we offer a flexible, tailored approach based on mutually beneficial long-term relationships. Depending on your needs, our involvement with the project can cover anything from consultancy and client representation to project management, supervision and technical assistance.

Within the required scope, our work can involve dredging, piling and foundations, construction, earth works and paving, concrete, steel construction and assembly, and materials and equipment supply.

Our approach aims always to enable a strong element of local content. Within this is our commitment to involving the local labour pool, ensuring local employment and economic benefit. As part of this, Damen Civil will provide training to the local workforce, transferring the knowledge and skills we have gained over the years and thereby assisting the development of those involved.

This know-how will go a long way in ensuring the increased competitiveness of your yard upon the completion of the project.

Our services do not need to end with project completion. Damen Civil can remain involved as long as you require, with our offering including everything from further training to operational management.
