Qatar Shipyard continues as a world leader in the repair and maintenance of LNG carriers

There are only a handful of ship repairers around the world that have the skills and facilities to successfully undertake the drydocking and repair and maintenance of technically advanced LNG carriers. One of these yards is Qatar Shipyard, based in the port of Ras Laffan. This shipyard was previously known as Nakilat-Keppel Offshore & Marine (N-KOM).

With Qatar’s state-owned LNG carrier operator Qatar Gas Transport Co Ltd (Nakilat) being the world’s largest operator of LNG carriers, and Qatar Energy having just placed the world’s largest single newbuilding contract in China for 18 LNG carriers, the world’s largest vessels each with a carrying capacity of 271,000m3, it is no surprise that Qatar Shipyard is a leader in the repair of these technically demanding vessels.
