2 Mecklenburg LNG stakeholders / players (1) Nordic Yards (former Aker Yards Wismar, Wadan Yards Products portfolio: Ice-breaking and Ice-going Tonnage Offshore constructions Specialized tankers Passenger vessels projects RoRo and RoPax projects Container Ships
3 Mecklenburg LNG stakeholders / players (1) Nordic Yards Production capacities Wismar Location Rostock Location Manufacturing and production completely independent from weather conditions * High steel throughput (up to approx. 60,000 t/p.a.) Crane capacity (up to 1,000 t) Large vessel and offshore projects can be built with standard assembly procedures at the dry dock (dry dock surface: 340 x 67 x 13.2 m., completely roofed) Substantial space available for transportation and interim storage (850,000 sq. m. total shipyard area, thereof 85,000 sq. m. roofed) High steel throughput (up to 55,000 t/p.a.) Large space available at the final assembly Large offshore projects can be built by special assembly procedures at the dry dock Long water edge, close to the open sea
4 Research and Development Products innovations / optimization Arctic ships / LNG tankers Offshore WEA Jack-ups LNG containment systems E.g. ADBT Aluminium Double Barrier Tank Procedures Numerical simulation Holistic optimization Risk-based design Welding and manufacturing techniques During the past 10 years extensive investments in research and development have been made at the yards.
