Recently, a management change has taken place at shipyard Royal Niestern Sander. As of March 2023 mr. Fokke Jan Botke has taken over the managing director position of Jan Doorduin.
The repair of the mv Helge, which was collided in September last year, is progressing according to plan. The steel repairs are 80% complete. The steel repairs of the wheelhouse including the bridge wing, repair of the boat deck and the accommodation and the repair of the side tanks plus the bilge have been fully repaired and restored to their original (new-built) condition.
On Tuesday morning 15th November the mv Helge arrived at the repair yard of Niestern Sander in Delfzijl. Here, the general cargo vessel managed by MF Shipping in Delfzijl, will be repaired in the upcoming months. Following a collision with another vessel in the German Bight, the mv Helge has serious (water) damage.
