Desan Shipyard announce its participation in the 16th Edition of LIMA 2023. As one of the largest maritime and aerospace exhibitions in the Asia-Pacific region, LIMA 2023 provides an excellent platform for Desan to showcase its cutting-edge capabilities in SBSR.
Desan and Leaptec Engineering Sdn Bhd (Leaptec), a subsidiary of LBS, signed a MoU on April 13, aiming to explore the construction and development of a shipyard business at Leaptec’s Reclamation Area in Melaka.
Additionally, Desan, a part of the Kaptanoglu Group, known for its active shipping business and Ship-to-Ship (STS) activities, will explore with Leaptec in conducting STS activities in the Malacca Strait on a term basis.
Looking ahead, Desan and Leaptec envision establishing a shipyard in Malacca in three phases, starting with ship repair activities. This initiative aligns with the companies’ long-term plans and their commitment to contributing to the growth and development of Malaysia’s maritime industry.
Desan, in collaboration with Leaptec, participated in LIMA 2023 as a booth exhibitor. Leaptec played its role in introducing Desan to various relevant ministries critical for the success of the Leaptec-Desan Malacca Shipyard business, from obtaining imperative approvals to driving business development. The presence of Desan at LIMA 2023 highlights the joint efforts and expertise of Desan in revolutionising the shipbuilding and ship repair industry.
