Daehan Shipbuilding Industry Co., Ltd
Jeollanamdo South Korea • Daehan Shipbuilding Industry Co., Ltd
Under Group of:
Originally named Sinyeong Shipbuilding Ironworks, the parent company is based at Yeosu and has been operating under the Daehan name since August 2004. Daehan Shipbuilding Industry Co., Ltd is a new yard in the Mokpo Area, just opposite the Hyundai Samho shipyard. Extensive land reclamation works, covering 1.32 million square metres, are underway on the Hwaan Peninsula. This forms part of a long term development plan to construct three dry docks and establish a shipyard capable of building Suezmax tankers and larger vessels.
Design facilities
Daehan has its own in-house design capability.
Construction facilities
Daehan’s new yard at Mokpo operates one dry dock of 223,000 DWT capacity. The yard has large hull fabrication workshops, established for some years as a hull sub contractor, located at the Mokpo Industrial complex, about 30 minutes’ drive from the main yard. Blocks built at these facilities can be transported to Daehan Yard by barge.
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.
