Rolls-Royce enters repair yard agreement
Rolls-Royce has entered into a co-operation agreement with Nauta SA ship repair yard in Poland, which it says will improve its customer service and growth in the region.
The company will gain exclusive rights to provide services on all Rolls-Royce equipment coming into the shipyard. In return, the co-operation is expected to bring in an increased flow of customers into the shipyard, knowing they can readily access the original equipment manufacturer expertise required for the work. Rolls-Royce says customers will also benefit from a co-ordinated approach for their vessel servicing needs.
“We are delighted to build our relationship with Nauta as they are one of the leading ship yards in the region and a major force in the vessel repair market. The partnership established through this agreement will enable us to deliver world class support for our customers and will benefit our respective efforts towards further growth,” said Knut Hovland, senior vice president, marine services Europe and Africa, Rolls-Royce.
“Our customers will be pleased to see that we have professionalised our relationship with Rolls-Royce. Availability of skilled service engineers is important to them, and therefore it is important to us; this agreement has been driven by customer needs,” added Wieslaw Badura, commercial director, Nauta SA.
