Shiprepairs in China

Chris Marine are pioneers in arranging ship repairs in China.

In 1986 we opened the ship repair market of China to Greek shipowners, by arranging   the   shiprepairs   and the drydocking of MV CHAR M in Guanzhou Wenchong shipyard. Chris Marine also arranged the repairs of the first Greek vessel in Shanghai in 1987, by placing the drydocking order of MV ALGA with Shanghai Shipyard.

In the late eighties and early nineties superintendent engineers faced the difficulty of being unable to communicate with the shipyards staff, as English was not spoken by many people in China. Therefore we decided to overcome this problem by employing interpreters.

In 1992 Chris Marine established an office in Shanghai which employed interpreters specialized in the field of ship repairs.

Chris Marine is proud that it opened the Chinese market to Greek Shipowners and that to the present day, we have arranged more than a thousand drydockings.
