The Challenge
China offers scale. Dulunova adds structure.
Building a vessel in China can reduce cost and expand supplier options. But without the right project office, international clients face risks in technical alignment, shipyard selection, contract control, classification coordination, supplier qualification, communication and delivery supervision.
Dulunova Marine acts as a structured execution layer between international project owners and China’s shipbuilding and marine technology ecosystem.
What We Do
Marine Project Integration Services
We are not a conventional broker. We operate as a project office coordinating the technical, commercial and operational steps required to move a vessel project from idea to execution.
Naval Design Coordination
Coordination with naval architects and marine engineers for concept design, basic design, detailed design and documentation.
Shipyard Sourcing & Tender Support
Identification of suitable Chinese shipyards, RFQ preparation, proposal comparison and negotiation support.
Electric & Hybrid System Integration
Battery, propulsion, charging, power management, thermal management and safety coordination with qualified partners.
Procurement & Supplier Coordination
Main equipment, auxiliary systems, Chinese suppliers, documentation, inspection support and delivery coordination.
Newbuild Supervision & Delivery Support
Milestone tracking, site reporting, quality control coordination, sea trials, handover documentation and after-sales support.
Vessel Focus
Ferries, Workboats and Electric Vessels
Dulunova Marine supports international clients developing newbuild and modernization projects for commercial, public transport, river, coastal and port-related operations.
Passenger Ferries
City ferries, river ferries, island connections and short-route passenger operations.
RoPax & Vehicle Ferries

Electric Ferries
Battery-electric ferry concepts, charging coordination and operational energy profile support.
Hybrid Vessels
Diesel-electric, battery-assisted and transitional propulsion concepts for real-world operations.
Workboats
Port support, service boats, technical transport, maintenance support and specialized vessels.
River & Remote-Region Vessels
Vessels adapted to inland waterways, emerging markets and demanding logistics environments.

About Dulunova
International coordination for serious marine projects.
Dulunova Marine was created to help international clients access China’s shipbuilding and marine technology ecosystem with structure, technical coordination and commercial clarity.
Our role is to coordinate the project path: from early concept alignment and partner mapping to shipyard sourcing, supplier coordination, electrification partners, procurement and construction follow-up.
The name Dulunova is inspired by dùlún, the Chinese word associated with ferry boat, combined with nova: a new generation of marine projects executed through China’s industrial ecosystem.
