Core Expertise

Shiprepair

Shiprepair activities are carried out in both our shipyards in Singapore and Batam, Indonesia. We are able to take on a wide range of repair jobs, both afloat and drydocked, for small- and medium- sized vessels. Over the years, we have built up a creditable track record in performing repair works on tug boats, barges, dredgers, fishing vessels, landing crafts, passenger vessels, pleasure crafts and tankers. In our Singapore shipyard, the Marine Traveliftª 800CMO enables us to optimise the use of shipyard space by maneuvering vessels on dry land.

To date, the Group has effectively managed the complementary strengths of its Batam and Singapore shipyards to great advantage, thereby enabling the Group to enjoy a stable market share for shipbuilding and shiprepair services.

The Batam shipyard operations will increasingly play a critical role in maintaining the Group's price competitiveness vis a vis competitors. With the expected completion of the Batam floating dock in the second half of FY2004, ASL Marine will further strengthen its current shipbuilding and shiprepair capabilities. Coupled with the Group's stronghold in newbuildings and the shiprepair market in the region, we will be in a strong position to tap opportunities for sustainable growth.
