Safehaven Marine Secures eighth DP World Pilot Boat Contract

Safehaven Marine are delighted to announce the signing of a new contract with DP World for the supply of another of our 18m Interceptor Pilot 60 pilot vessels for operations in the Gulf region.

The new vessel will be the fourth Pilot 60 supplied by Safehaven Marine to DP World in the Gulf, following three vessels delivered in 2025 which have now been operating successfully in the region for the past 18 months.

DP World is one of the world’s leading providers of global trade and logistics infrastructure, with operations spanning more than 80 countries and a network of over 60 ports and terminals across six continents. Through its ports, terminals, logistics and marine services, DP World plays a significant role in keeping international trade moving, handling approximately 10% of global trade.

Safehaven Marine has enjoyed a long-standing relationship with DP World and P&O Maritime, dating back to the delivery of our first pilot vessel to the group in 2013.

This latest contract represents another important milestone in that relationship, with the new Pilot 60 becoming the eighth pilot boat built by Safehaven Marine for DP World operations worldwide and become Safehaven’s seventy first pilot boat delivered.

The repeat orders are a strong endorsement of the performance, reliability and build quality of Safehaven Marine’s pilot vessels, as well as their ability to operate effectively in the demanding conditions encountered across DP World & P&O Maritimes international port operations.

We are extremely pleased to continue our relationship with DP World and look forward to delivering another Pilot 60 to support their marine operations in the Gulf.
