Shipbuilding Summary

Xiamen Shipbuilding Industry Co., Ltd., established in 1996, is located in the Xiamen Special Economic Zone and stretches over 1.5 kilometres of coastline. The company
is part of Fujian Shipbuilding Industry Group Co., Ltd., and offers newbuilding services for both domestic and international clients, including those in Europe and Southeast Asia.

The shipyard builds a wide range of commercial and offshore vessels. Past projects include Handymax bulk carriers, Handysize multi-purpose vessels (MPVs),
75m and 78m platform supply vessels (PSVs), a 100m accommodation/work vessel for 300 personnel, feeder container ships, and pure car and truck carriers (PCTCs)
with 4,900 or 8,500 unit capacity.

In 2014, the yard added an 80,000 DWT dry dock fitted with an 800-tonne gantry crane, and built a 500m outfitting quay. These upgrades boosted its production
capacity. A new office building is also under construction.

Organisational milestones

  • 1996 Removed from the old area and re-established
  • 2002 Shareholding reform, which has quickly improved the company's size, grade and management.
Why Lloyd's Register?

Independent shipyard insight, future-ready newbuild guidance and expert advisory support to help you make confident new construction decisions from planning to delivery.

New construction decisions shape the performance, compliance and commercial value of a vessel for decades. Lloyd’s Register helps owners, operators, charterers and project teams make those decisions with greater clarity, combining trusted classification expertise with practical newbuild advisory support. 

Through LR’s New Construction Guide, clients can access independent shipyard intelligence across North Asia, including China, Korea and Japan. The guide helps compare shipyard capabilities, facilities, track record, vessel specialisms and future-fuel readiness, supporting smarter shipyard selection and earlier project planning.

Beyond the guide, LR provides advisory support across the full newbuild lifecycle. From technical specification development and design review to regulatory impact assessments, alternative fuel studies, energy efficiency, carbon capture readiness, site support and operational preparation, LR helps clients reduce uncertainty before it becomes a cost, a delay, or a risk. 

With global technical authority, local shipyard knowledge and deep maritime expertise, Lloyd’s Register supports future-ready vessels from the earliest concept through to construction and delivery, helping clients build with confidence in an increasingly complex market.
