Handelskade is a Dutch shipbuilding contractor with over 30 years of experience in inland and coastal vessels. We operate globally, with a strong focus on Vietnam, Turkey, and Romania. Our flexible model without owning a shipyard allows us to select the best available yard for each project, always aiming for the optimal price-quality ratio.
Handelskade takes care of the complete procurement of ship equipment, tailored to each project. Thanks to our reliable suppliers, with whom we have a longterm relationship and track record, we are able to compare and assess multiple technical and commercial options always aiming for the best price-quality-performance ratio.
Handelskade Marine Logistics (HML) provides complete logistics solutions for the marine and cruise industry. No challenge is too complex: from frozen and refrigerated cargo to oversized equipment or urgent hand-carried deliveries, we take care of it.
While the maritime industry is accelerating towards lower emissions and higher efficiency, a large part of the smaller tanker fleet is ageing rapidly. Many vessels currently operating in this segment were designed long before today’s energy transition and upcoming environmental regulations.
We are proud to announce that we have signed a contract for the construction of the Mareva Nui II, a multi-purpose vessel that will serve the waters of French Polynesia.
The vessel will be built by Handelskade at Hong Ha Shipyard in Hai Phong, Vietnam. A yard we know well, having built 12 turn-key vessels together over the past fifteen years.
It was great to reconnect with our long-standing partners, and we are looking forward to working together again on this exciting project.
Over the past years, we have built up expertise across multiple disciplines within the maritime industry.
What started as separate entities is now brought together under one clear structure, allowing us to operate more efficiently, communicate more clearly, and serve our partners with a stronger and more consistent presence worldwide.
Jesse will focus on further developing and managing our procurement activities. With a strong focus on sourcing, supplier relations and cost efficiency, he will play a key role in strengthening our purchasing processes and network
Last week, the vessel completed its official trial run, with all tests successfully concluded. Operating with 3 barges and a total cargo of 7,000 tons, the convoy showcased its powerful diesel-electric propulsion system (2 × 960 kW Oswald) supported by 5 DAF-Paccar diesel generating sets and 840 kWh of batteries.
A strong step forward, thanks to all partners involved.
We wish Rhenus Logistics and her crew a safe and successful operation.
