SPAIN: Palma yard adds berths to boost refit projects

STP Shipyard Palma is making further headway towards anchoring its leadership in the refit and repair industry by investing close to €8 million in expanding its technical area. The total area will increase from 130,000m˛ to 162,000m˛, with 102,000m˛ on the hard and 60,000m˛ in the water. The project includes the construction of five new berths capable of welcoming yachts up to 110m in length.

The project responds to the need to offer tailored solutions to owners of luxury yachts, who are looking for top-tier facilities and specialised services. "Over the years, we've received numerous requests for berths for yachts of this size, and with this expansion we'll finally be able to meet this demand," confirmed STP CEO Joan Rosselló.
The first phase of works is already underway, focusing on the preparation of the new docking area and the installation of the infrastructure to guarantee end-to-end service for superyachts. This investment won't just allow STP to cement its leadership in the industry, but will also help Mallorca underpin its position as a global yachting benchmark.
In addition to expanding its berthing areas, STP has particularly focused on enhancing the operational efficiency of its facilities. The reorganisation of work areas will optimise processes and cut response times. The creation of a covered area for mast repairs, as well as the improvement of general infrastructure, will guarantee greater quality and speed in the services on offer.
Fully aware of the importance of sustainability, STP has integrated energy-efficient solutions into its expansion project. The installation of solar panels and energy storage systems will slash the yard's carbon footprint and help preserve the environment.
The new berths will be operational by the end of 2024 and the rest of the work is scheduled for completion in spring 2025.
