The Odense Staalskibsværft (also Lindøværft ) was a Danish shipyard in Odense on Funen. She belonged to the A. P. Møller- Mærsk Group.
History
The yard was from 1918 to 1919 by A. P. Møller built. The first ship produced was the steamer " Robert Mærsk " in the year 1920 1940 -. Denmark in 1945 was occupied by troops of the Wehrmacht.
1954 provided the Odense Staalskibsværft turbine tanker Regina Mærsk with her to date the largest ship, which was the typical blue outer shell painting for the first time.
In the years 1957 to 1959 was a new, larger facility in Munkebo shipyard, just outside Odense erected. No more ships are on the old shipyard area since 1966, when production was completely relocated to new premises made .
The new yard has several docks. The docks I, II and with a size of 300 x 45 x 7.5 meters, the production of tankers up to 100,000 dwt
1967 Dock III was completed, which with a size of 415 x 90 meters and a 800 -ton crane (95 m high, 148.5 m radius ) enabled the production of tankers in the VLCC and ULCC class. The largest planned ships were two 500,000 - dwt tankers, which were never built.
In July 1974, the Odense shipyard delivered the 330,000 - dwt tanker Kristine Mærsk, the then largest European carriers. Six more ships of this class were built until 1977.
From 1979 to 1980 six on the Odense shipyard six Ro-Ro ships the Elisabeth Mærsk class were produced in 1980 the first container ship. 1988 was built at the shipyard, the Marchen Mærsk; she was at the time the world 's largest container ship with 4,300 TEU. Eleven more ships of this class were followed until 1991.
In December 1992 the world's first 300,000 - dwt double-hull tanker was produced; to 1995, five more such tankers. In January 1996 we introduced the first post-Panamax container ship ready.
On 3 December 1999, the large crane crashed after a hurricane into the dock and damaged the ship newbuilding No. 170 In April 2001, a new 1,000 -ton crane of MAN TAKRAF of Leipzig was established.
Since April 1997, the shipyard owner is 98.5 % of the shares of the Lithuanian shipyard Baltijos Laivo Statykla. In September 1997, the shipyard in Odense with the Sovereign Maersk the first 8,000 -TEU carriers in the world for Mærsk.
2006-2008 built the shipyard eight per 14,770 TEU container ships of the comprehensive Emma Mærsk class that in November 2012 were the largest ships of its kind until the commissioning of the CMA CGM Marco Polo. Apparently, the People's Republic of China promotes its shipyards so strong that even major Korean shipyards can no longer exist in the price war for standard ships.
Due to continuous losses it was decided to close the shipyard in February 2012 after the completion of all remaining orders. Shipyards in Lithuania were sold in 2010.
2010 pulled the Fayard A / S from Fredericia to the shipyard in Munkebo.
The final construction of the HDMS Niels Juel was the Lindøværft, a frigate for the Danish Navy, which was placed in service in 2012.
