engineering works.
TMS was ceremonially launched by DIMO Chairman Ranjith Pandithage,
whilst the guest of honour was Ports Authority Chairman Dr. Priyath
Bandu Wickrema.
More than 15 leading principals participated at the event. Several
presentations were made by these principals emphasizing their individual
strengths in the marine field.
DIMO Ltd Director Roshan Fernando and DIMO Product Manager Shahzad
Ghany represented Total Marine Solutions from DIMO.
DIMO continues a long-standing trusted partnership with MTU which is
known to be the leader in diesel engines and complete drive systems.
DIMO has partnered with Goltens-Dubai, a well-known name in ship
repairing.
Goltens is a leading provider of specialized repair, maintenance,
reconditioning services and trading of engineering components for
worldwide shipping, offshore marine installations, industrial plants and
power stations.
Speaking at the event Pandithage mentioned that with the boom in the
economy and infrastructure development in Sri Lanka, the country stands
the opportunity to attract marine vessels for repairs at a very
competitive rate compared to Middle East and Singapore.
The strategic location of Sri Lanka also adds to the appeal. The
number of brand new ships built in 2010 was 2526, according to the Ship
Builders Association of Japan - out of which 43% were built by Chinese
ship yards.
Through this initiative DIMO hopes to attract vessels from all over
the world to Sri Lanka, and create a dominant industry in Marine
Solutions. |
