Repair activity resumes at the largest shipyard in the Eastern Mediterranean
Highly encouraging are the signs for both Skaramangas Shipyards and the broader effort to fully revive the country’s shipbuilding and ship repair industry, as reflected in the steady influx of vessels to the largest shipbuilding facility in the Eastern Mediterranean, which continues to set consecutive records for simultaneous ship repairs.
In particular, in early February 2026, Skaramangas Shipyards, in collaboration with DK Fotinakis, is carrying out multiple concurrent repair projects on ships and superyachts. This activity demonstrates only part of the shipyard’s capabilities and the high level of expertise it possesses. The scope, type, and specific requirements of the repair works—combined with the size and particular characteristics of the vessels—clearly show that the shipbuilding facility, together with the specialised know-how of DK Fotinakis, is once again able to handle a particularly large volume and wide range of technical operations.
The trust shown by numerous Greek and international shipping companies in Skaramangas Shipyards and DK Fotinakis is no coincidence. It confirms the know-how, technical competence, and professionalism of the Greek shipbuilding and ship repair industry, which consistently undertakes complex technical projects within tight timeframes. This progress enhances Greece’s position in the Mediterranean and global shipbuilding industry, while making a substantial contribution to the national economy, employment, and the strengthening of the maritime cluster.
All indications suggest that the current repair records are only the beginning, as an increasing share of the shipyard’s facilities and infrastructure is being restored to full operation. In parallel with vessel repairs, continuous interventions are underway to rehabilitate and bring infrastructure back into use, ensuring that the steadily growing operational needs of Skaramangas Shipyards are fully met.
