Keyfield unit inks RM73mil shipbuilding job


The company said the new DP2 AHTS is part of its strategy to allocate more resources and increase exposure to AHTS.

PETALING JAYA: Keyfield International Bhd’s wholly-owned subsidiary Keyfield Resolute Sdn Bhd has entered into a contract with Fujian Mawei Shipbuilding Ltd and Fujian Funing Shipbuilding Co Ltd for the shipbuilding of a new dynamic positioning (DP2) anchor handling tug supply (AHTS) with diesel-electric engine for a contract price of US$18mil (RM72.5mil).

“The new DP2 AHTS is part of our strategy to allocate more resources and increase exposure to AHTS while maintaining our core strength in accommodation workboats as we expand our international charters.

“As our existing AHTS are largely committed to or earmarked for long-term charters, the New DP2 AHTS will expand available AHTS capacity and allow us to pursue new tender and spot charter opportunities without affecting existing commitments,” said the group in a filing with Bursa Malaysia.
