Søby Shipyard has signed a contract with DBB Dredging for a large conversion project. The transformation involves several significant modifications, including the installation of a new midship section with bottom doors.

Our dedicated team will carry out this project in Dock II at the Shipyard, where we possess the capability to construct a protective tent cover, ensuring the vessel's safety throughout the winter months.

We eagerly anticipate commencing this project and are thrilled to collaborate with DBB Dredging. Søby Shipyard boasts a wide range of ship repair expertise, catering to projects of all sizes, from smaller endeavors to substantial undertakings like the one mentioned above.
