Here, you can view all of Kyokuyo's life logs documented over the past 20 years. This is who we are.
On December 8, 2014, took place the keel-laying ceremony for S521. It was the last building ceremony for this year.
On November 7, 2014, Kyokuyo Shipyard Corporation conducted its biennial fire drill under the leadership of Shimonoseki East Fire Station. It was a big program, which involved more than 50 staffs, including members of Kyokuyo's own fire brigade team. The fire station provided instructors and firefighters, a commander's van and pumpers.
October 15, 2014 was the day when Kyokuyo delivered S513 to the owner, KSC Shipping S.A.. Just like her elder sister S516, or Heung-A Young, she is a latest example of the builder's 1,103-TEU 'Japanmax' container carrier model and employed by Heung-A Shipping Co., Ltd. of South Korea.
Since more than 5 decades, Kyokuyo Shipyard annually hosts "Kyokuyo Open" golf tournament on an autumn day, where we thankfully invite some of our stakeholders, including suppliers, subcontractors and service providers, among others. The 54th edition of Kyokuyo Open was held on October 10, the company's founding anniversary. No less than 122 players (in 31 groups) enjoyed a day of golf at prestigious Shimonoseki Golf Club.
The latest issue of 'Shiho Shimonoseki' features Kyokuyo Shipyard.
Kyokuyo Shipyard Corporation is happy to announce that Tetsuo Mitsui, its Senior Managing Director, received 2014 Kyushu District Transport Bureau Director-General's Award. The District Transport Bureau is an arm of Japan's Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism (MILT).
On July 31, 2014, we held the naming and delivery ceremonies for S516, ordered by R&M.HG.WAVE.INC.. The ship is Kyokuyo's latest 'Japanmax' container feeder which has an impressive loading capacity of 1,103TEU with GRT being less than 10,000tons.
The keel-laying ceremony for a 1,103TEU container carrier took place on July 3, 2014. Code-named S517, she is the eldest of 2-sister series ordered by Taiwan-based TVL Shipping Company Limited.
3 Months after her naming, as reported in NEWS179, the gas carrier m.t. "ECO CHIOS" was completed on schedule.
For Kyokuyo it is important to have good employees and keep them happy and motivated. In this entry, we introduce some of our internal news related to the employee welfare.
It's April again and we are going to introduce our new employees. This year, we welcomed 6 fresh crew members.
Our last big event of the fiscal year 2013 was the naming and delivery ceremonies for S514, ordered by Belair Entertainment Inc., and the naming ceremony for the sister ship S515, ordered by Intergalactic Investments Inc.. Both of the vessels were 7,200m3 type liquefied gas carriers.
On March 1, 2014, Kyokuyo Shipyard Corporation jointly organized a inter-company shipbuilding skills competition with Onomichi Dockyard, Co., Ltd. The idea of this competition, which was to motivate young technicians to improve their skills through exciting events, was born from conversations between the presidents of the 2 companies quite a while ago. Since then, the both companies have been working together toward the realization of this unprecedented competition.
As reported by newspapers, Kyokuyo Shipyard Corporation received, on December 27, 2013, an order for a 540TEU container carrier from Kobe-based Imoto Lines, Ltd.
