Shipyards in the Baltic Sea region and Northern Europe are locked in a fierce battle for orders within offshore and ship repairs, says CEO and owner of Fayard on the former Lindø yard, Thomas Andersen. He calls it a real price war brought on by an abundance in shipyard capacity.
“The market is under a lot of pressure, but, as far as our own company is concerned, we have seen a sound development up until October. And even though we are approaching a couple of weak months and we emerge from 2013 with a smaller turnover, we can present a significantly better result than in 2012,” Thomas Andersen tells ShippingWatch.
