From 1 October 2021, Next Generation Shiprepair of Lauwersoog will be service partner for AMW-Marine of HamiltonJet (waterjet drives for ships). The agreement between AMW-Marine and Next Generation Shiprepair was signed yesterday afternoon.
The HamiltonJet waterjet is one of the most advanced and innovative ship propulsion systems in use today and is at the forefront of waterjet propulsion technology. Next Generation Shiprepair staff are trained to carry out maintenance and repair fully to HamiltonJet specifications.
Regional service and support
Jeroen Goes, sales manager at AMW-Marine, says: “In an industry where deployability is crucial and 24/7 support is required, we determined that we needed a partner to support the ever-growing fleet of HamiltonJet-powered offshore crew and support boats operating around wind farms in the North Sea region. We have found a partner in Next Generation Shiprepair to provide this regional service and support. Their geographical location with access to open sea, abundance of space, 220-tonne ship lift and 24/7 organisation, make them a popular service and maintenance location and as such an ideal partner for us to work with. Together, we strive for excellent service in the region.”
