CORPORATE

Chantier Naval de Marseille is located in Marseille’s eastern harbour with one of the Mediterranean’s largest heavy industrial facilities

CNdM operates large, modern and well-equipped workshops situated in front of Dry Docks No. 8 and No. 9. Each of the workshops is involved in a single activity (mechanical work, steelwork, pipe work, lifting, logistics, electrical work and general storage), and is properly equipped with large overhead cranes and advanced machinery.

 

CNdM operates Dry Docks No. 8 and No. 9 in the Port of Marseille, which are capable of receiving the largest of vessels, and 450 linear metres of fully-equipped berths. The yard also manages Dry Dock No. 10 (the largest in the Mediterranean) with a 465m x 85m capacity.

Marseille has many interesting tourist attractions, museums and famous city landmarks. Located on France's Mediterranean coast, it is home to the country's largest port and is one of its oldest cities.

Marseille is a port-of-call for many Mediterranean cruise companies, and the train station is the departure point for rail services heading to other French cities. High-speed TGV trains travel between Paris and Marseille in just three hours, and the airport, located in Marignane, is a major airline hub for flights to African and European destinations.
