What you must know about Sembcorp Marine's new Tuas Yard

Expected to lower turnaround time.

According to Nomura, the yard is expected to significantly enhance SMM’s capabilities by alleviating logistical issues faced at the older yard and contributing to reduced dependence on foreign labour on account of efficiency improvements.

By enabling double banking, the new yard will lead to significantly lower turnaround time and costs.

Here's more from Nomura:

The new yard will lead to doing away of ferrying people from the older yard to the deeper area on a daily basis, thus reducing costs.

The new port coming up in Tuas is literally “across the street” from the older yard and management remain confident that this strategic location will make the vessels at the new port its captive market.

The shipyard will also cater to ships and semis that have specific depth and length requirements, which can be worked upon at very few yards globally.

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
