Start of Production for first Converter Platform Production of the #DolWin delta converter platform began yesterday at MEYER WERFT with the symbolic start of steel cutting. DolWin delta is the first of four converter platforms that MEYER WERFT is manufacturing in large part on behalf of DRAGADOS OFFSHORE. The end customer and subsequent operator is the German transmission system operator Amprion GmbH. "We are delighted to build the steel sections for the converter platforms here in Papenburg and are proud to be making a key contribution to the energy transition. We will be using the laser hybrid welding process that we have established at our shipyard. It is being used for the first time in the construction of DC platforms and impressively demonstrates how we can transfer our expertise to other maritime sectors," explains Dr Jan Meyer, Chief Business Innovation Officer of the MEYER Group. "DolWin delta is the entry of German shipyards into the offshore market. The cooperation with Dragados Offshore and MEYER WERFT provides positive impetus for the German economy," adds Dr Carsten Lehmköster, Managing Director of Amprion Offshore GmbH.

What would #shipbuilding be without #welding? Whether large cruise ships, smaller river cruise vessels or special ships - we could not build them without the various welding processes. The constant further development of these processes and techniques is accordingly of great importance to us and the membership in the DVS – Deutscher Verband für Schweißen und verwandte Verfahren e. V. (German Association for Welding and Allied Processes) offers the possibility of exchange with other specialists. Yesterday a working group of the association met with us in Papenburg to exchange experiences. Representatives from MEYER WERFT GmbH & Co. KG gave the members insights into industry-specific topics of welding in shipbuilding practice or quality assurance through "non-destructive testing". Sven Kronner, Welding Supervisor of the German company group, concluded positively: "The participants were impressed by the visit to the shipyard, particularly by the integration and implementation of materials testing, welding technology, and quality in shipbuilding. Such events underscore the importance of #exchange and #collaboration within the industry to ensure consistently high-quality standards and to drive forward innovative solutions."   #meyerwerft #meyergroup #welding #joinourteam #ShipbuildingWithPassion #beapioneer

SECOND NAVAL FUEL SUPPLY VESSEL LAID ON KEEL With the keel laying of the second military naval fuel supply vessel, the project team successfully reached the next important milestone today, just a few weeks after the start of firing. At the festive highlight of the ceremony, the shipbuilders at NEPTUN WERFT hammered the keel laying plate between the keel block beam and the steel section of more than 150 tonnes. The two new naval tankers for the German Navy are being built at NEPTUN WERFT in Rostock under the leadership of the Bremen-based #NVL Group in cooperation with the #MEYER Group. 

We made it! MEYER WERFT's newest cruise ship, the Silver Ray, arrived safely in the Dollart this Sunday. The ship is expected to moor in the Dutch port of Eemshaven on Sunday late evening. Further technical and nautical sea trials on the North Sea will take place later. The Silver Ray sets new standards for environmental protection and expedition cruising and has the best possible systems currently available to significantly reduce emissions. The Silver Ray was the 50th ship to travel to the North Sea with the support of the Emssperrwerk. #MeyerWerft #SilverRay #Technology #CruiseIndustry
