Our new150.000dwt drydock, operational mid-1977

Over a century of dedication to quality.

For more than a century Keppel has been repairing ships of all shapes, sizes, complexities and sophistication. Today we repair some 2,500 vessels a year, ranging from tankers, general-cargo ships, bulk carriers and passenger liners to drillships, livestock carriers and fish-and-whale floating factories.

Our six drydocks of 40,000 DWT capacity are fully supported by comprehensive workshop facilities. We handle conversions, emergency repairs, annual and special surveys, operating round-the-clock seven days a week.

Our new 150,000 DWT Drydock at the Tuas

Shipyard will become operational in mid-1977, and is now able to accommodate alongside repairs of vessels of up to 250,000 DWT.

To provide an all-round complete shiprepair/ shipbuilding service, Keppel has diversified and is today, the parent company of a group of companies involved in rig and shipbuilding; anchorage and voyage repairs; steelwork repairs and structural contract work; grit-blasting and tank coating.

With experience and expertise, we have thus acguired the technology to provide service, quality and on-time deliveries at competitive prices. To these ends we are committed, as we have been for the last century.
