Singapore-based Seatrium Limited reports that it has entered into a new agreement with Royal Caribbean Group that underscores the strong capabilities of Seatrium’s Repairs & Upgrades business as a provider of complex cruise ship retrofit solutions.

Under the new agreement, which reinforces a strategic partnership that began in 2012, Royal Caribbean Group is expected to dock a significant number of cruise vessels for statutory inspections, repairs and upgrades at Seatrium’s facilities over the next several years, providing sustained workload visibility for the group’s Singapore yards. The contract covers Royal Caribbean Group’s global fleet, including its Royal Caribbean, Celebrity Cruises, and Silversea Cruises brands,

“This renewal underscores Royal Caribbean Group’s continued confidence in Seatrium’s strong track record – built over more than a decade of partnership – in delivering complex cruise ship projects with reliable execution, high quality and uncompromising safety,” said Alvin Gan, EVP repairs & upgrades at Seatrium. “Our state-of-the-art Tuas Boulevard Yard, equipped with advanced dry docks and integrated digital workflows, further enhances our ability to support large-scale, fast turnaround projects. Partnering with world-class cruise ship operators like Royal Caribbean Group reinforces our market leadership that also supports Singapore’s position as a leading cruise hub. We remain committed to driving continuous improvement and shared value.”

Seatrium has already commenced work on selected vessels under this strategic partnership. Celebrity Solstice completed its revitalization works at the Tuas Boulevard Yard on February 28, 2026, Ovation of the Seas will begin its enhancement work in March 2026, while Silver Cloud is scheduled for drydocking, repairs and upgrades later in the year.

“Seatrium has consistently demonstrated the engineering depth and operational discipline required for highly complex cruise ship drydock, upgrade and retrofit projects that are critical to our fleet,” said Brian Ostergaard Sorensen, SVP global marine operations at Royal Caribbean Group. “As a long-standing trusted partner, we look forward to continuing to work closely together to achieve safe and timely project deliveries for our vessels.”
