Efficient, flexible and
reliable

De Haas Shipyards is the right address for maintenance and (emergency) repair of vessels. We work well, fast and efficiently and have experience with all types of vessels. With two excellently equipped yards in the Rotterdam port area, there is always a solution, planned or unplanned.

We have all disciplines in-house, but – in consultation with the customer, of course – we also like to work with specialist subcontractors. We always keep control: this way we keep the quality, planning and costs under control.

Higher deployability
of vessels

To increase the deployability of the fleet we do scheduled maintenance, often with a multi-year maintenance contract. Several shipping companies fully entrust the maintenance of their fleet to De Haas Shipyards.

In close consultation with their technical department, we use condition-based, but also risk-driven maintenance to ensure higher availability and a reduction in vessel downtime due to failures. By controlling life cycle costs, we also ensure transparent and more profitable investments.

Safely dry-docking vessels with Marine Travelift

Both locations – Maassluis and Rotterdam – have a Marine Travelift. This allows us to elevator vessels out of the water, virtually without limit and independent of tides. Quick underwater inspections and repairs, such as removing a hawser from a propeller or repairing a leak, can often be carried out with the vessel in the Travelift. This allows you to get back to using your vessel within hours.

If more work needs to be done the vessel is given a place on the dock or in one of our ship repair halls. The Travelift is then usable again for the next customer. The capacity – unlike docks or slipways – is virtually unlimited.
