Purpose-built Dry Docking project management 


Dry docking is one of the most complex and costly phases in a vessel's lifecycle.


Once a vessel enters the yard, technical teams must manage contractors, inspections, change orders and cost approvals - all while the clock is running and revenue is on hold.


Part of the Shipnet Platform, Shipnet Dry Docking provides a purpose-built project management environment designed specifically for maritime dry dock workflows.

The challenge in managing a fleet is rarely a single system.



It is the gaps between systems -  where visibility, control, and operational understanding are often lost.

Bringing Dry Dock planning, cost control, reporting, and shipyard coordination into one system.

Built for maritime dry dock operations

Dry dock projects involve specialised workflows including:


  • Technical work scopes
  • Inspection and repair tracking
  • Shipyard quotation comparisons
  • Contractor coordination
  • Cost approvals and change orders


Shipnet Dry Docking is designed specifically for these operational requirements, helping technical teams manage complex docking projects without relying on spreadsheets and disconnected tools.

Control costs and scope in the yard

One of the biggest challenges during dry dock is maintaining control once the vessel enters the yard.


Unexpected findings, additional work items and scope changes can quickly lead to cost overruns and schedule delays.

Shipnet Dry Docking

Provides clear visibility across project scope and budget, allowing teams to track work progress, compare actual costs against estimates and respond quickly to changes during the docking process.


This helps fleet managers and technical directors maintain tighter financial control throughout the project lifecycle.


  • Compare shipyard quotations with confidence

    Selecting the right yard is a critical decision in any docking project.

    Shipnet Dry Docking enables technical teams to evaluate shipyard quotations side-by-side using structured cost breakdowns and historical project data.

    This makes it easier to assess proposals, negotiate pricing and make informed decisions when selecting shipyards.


  • Reuse knowledge from previous projects

    Every docking project generates valuable operational knowledge.

    Shipnet Dry Docking allows organisations to reuse specifications, work scopes and historical project data, helping technical teams plan future dockings more efficiently.

    By learning from previous projects, organisations can improve planning accuracy and reduce the risk of unexpected costs.


  • Standalone or fully integrated

    Shipnet Dry Docking can be deployed either as part of the Shipnet platform or as a standalone solution.

    This flexibility allows fleets to adopt a specialised dry docking system without needing to replace their existing planned maintenance systems.

    For many organisations, this makes Shipnet Dry Docking an easy first step toward more structured project management - a lower-cost entry point that scales as the relationship grows, rather than a decision that locks a fleet into anything more than it needs on day one.

    When used within the Shipnet platform, docking data can also connect with technical management, procurement and financial workflows for deeper operational visibility.


One of the biggest challenges during dry dock is maintaining control once the vessel enters the yard.

When it's running inside the Shipnet platform, Dry Docking connects to the parts of the platform that pick up what happens next:


Built for technical teams

The primary users of Shipnet Dry Docking are the people responsible for delivering successful dockings:

[Fleet Managers]

Maintain oversight of docking projects and budgets across the fleet.

[Technical Directors]

Ensure docking projects meet technical and financial expectations.

[Technical Superintendents]

Manage day-to-day project scope, contractor coordination and progress in the yard.

What is Shipnet Dry Docking?

Shipnet Dry Docking is a purpose-built project management environment for maritime dry dock workflows - planning, cost control, shipyard coordination and reporting in one system.

Do we need the full Shipnet platform to use it?

No. Shipnet Dry Docking can run as a standalone system without replacing your existing planned maintenance system, or as part of the Shipnet platform for deeper integration with technical, procurement and financial workflows.

How does it help control costs once a vessel is in the yard?

It gives teams clear visibility across project scope and budget, so actual costs can be tracked against estimates and scope changes can be responded to quickly rather than discovered after the fact.

Can we compare quotations from multiple shipyards?

Yes. Quotations can be evaluated side-by-side using structured cost breakdowns and historical project data, making it easier to assess proposals and negotiate pricing.

Can we reuse specifications and data from past docking projects?

Yes. Specifications, work scopes and historical project data can be reused, helping technical teams plan future dockings more accurately.

Who typically uses Shipnet Dry Docking?

Fleet Managers, Technical Directors and Technical Superintendents - the teams responsible for delivering a docking project on time and within budget.
