7 May 2026 – Nekkar ASA’s wholly-owned subsidiary Syncrolift AS has been awarded a contract by South Red Sea Shipyard in Egypt for the design and supply of a 7,000-ton shiplift and transfer system.

The total contract value for Syncrolift is EUR 8.5 million. Delivery is scheduled for the fourth quarter of 2027. Syncrolift will conduct project management and engineering from its Headquarter and Innovation Centre in Vestby, Norway.

Syncrolift’s scope includes engineering, design and supply of the main shiplift and transfer system equipment. The new facility will support South Red Sea Shipyard’s newbuilding and repair operations across a broad mix of vessels, including yachts, offshore vessels, tugs and fishing vessels.

“This award reflects continued demand for our shiplift and transfer systems in the commercial market. South Red Sea Shipyard is establishing a modern facility serving a diverse vessel mix, and we are pleased to support the project with a 7,000-ton system designed for that purpose” says Rolf-Atle Tomassen, managing director of Syncrolift AS

The contract confirms Syncrolift’s position as a leading supplier of large-scale shipyard handling solutions and extends the company’s commercial footprint in the Red Sea region.

“The contract underlines Syncrolift’s strength in the commercial shiplift market, in addition to its established role in the naval defence segment. It also illustrates the breadth of customers and geographies Syncrolift continues to serve” says Ole Falk Hansen, CEO of Nekkar ASA.
