Odense Steel Shipyard

Industrials

Odense Steel Shipyard was a Danish shipyard company located in Odense, founded in 1917 by A.P. Moller and later part of the A.P. Moller-Maersk Group. It was best known for building container ships for its parent group, including the Maersk E class delivered from 2006, at the time the biggest container ships in the world, among them the Emma Maersk. The 2008 financial crisis led Maersk to announce the yard's closure in 2009, and the last new ship was delivered in January 2012.
