The Damen Group is a group of maritime related companies, founded in 1927 by brothers Jan and Marinus Damen, who established the company with a self-built shipyard and workshop, in Hardinxveld-Giessendam, Netherlands.

Damen Shipyards Group has 38 shipyards in 17 countries, with over 7000 employees, and also licenses its designs to other nations. Designs include tugboats, cargo vessels, dredgers, fast ferries, mega yachts, workboats, service vessels for the oil industry, and various kinds of patrol vessels. Damen shipyards manufactures standardized spare parts, allowing for ships to be relatively easy to assemble. The shell hulls are constructed in overseas countries with low overhead costs, with the specialized and complex components built in the Netherlands.
Damen's naming scheme
The names of Damen designs always include a four digit number, where the first two digits are the length of the hull, in metres, and the second pair are its width, in metres.[1] The build tugs, patrol vessels, etc., of roughly the same size, so the name of each design also specifically says the design's particular role.
