AMOB partner of Vietnam shipbuilding industrie

With a coastline of 3260 km (excluding islands) on the Gulf of Tonkin, the South Chinese Sea and the Gulf of Thailand, the natural resources in Vietnam provide a good basis for marine activity. Vietnam is the world’s fourth largest shipbuilding country and the industry is one of the main priority sectors of the government of Vietnam.

Shipbuilding is one of the priority sectors for the Vietnamese government and shows intention of growing. Despite the grave impact of the economic downturn on the shipbuilding industry in Vietnam, it remains a promising sector, in particular with regard to shipbuilding technology and equipment.

One of our CH170 CNC Pipe Benders has arrived successfully and has already been installed and tested at our client’s facilities.

Currently there is a presence of 9 major shipbuilding factories, divided into three major clusters. In the south there are two factories with the capabilities to make ships sized 25 – 50,000 DWT. In the central part of Vietnam there are four factories, able to build ships sized 50 – 30,000 DWT. The overall sector is promising, in particular with regard to shipbuilding technology and equipment. Imported equipment mainly includes marine diesel engines, electronic-hydraulic steering gear, cranes up to 120 ton, air compressors, crankshaft grinders, plasma cutting machines, welding machines and other on-board equipment. Technology transfer in the sector is also a common co-operation with foreign partners that local shipyards prefer.
