Our history

Moss Maritime has its roots from the former Moss Rosenberg Shipyard in the city of Moss, Norway. After the close-down of the shipyard in the 1980s the company has had many shapes and forms until we were included into the Saipem umbrella in 2001.

 

The company name is closely associated with one of the most recognized products in the LNG industry; the Moss LNG carriers.
