The shipyard, situated in the Jurong Industrial Estate, spans 17.26 hectares and features two large graving docks, one floating dock, expanded quayside capacity, and integrated workshops.
The yard took two years to build and was jointly supported by JTC Corporation and the Singapore Economic Development Board (EDB), PaxOcean said.
