Odense Steel Shipyard (Danish: Odense Staalskibsværft) located in Odense, Denmark was constructed in 1918-1919 by the A.P. Møller-Mærsk Group. A new yard with bigger and better facilites was constructed 1957-1959 on a new site located in Munkebo a few kilometres outside of Odense proper.

The original shipyard remained in operation until 1966 when all operations were transferred to the new site. Unlike the modern shipyard, the old yard produced civilian and merchant vessels only. Its first completed ship was cargo steamship Robert Mærsk, completed in 1920. Its last production was no. 177, bulkcarrier Laura Mærsk.

The new Odense Steel Shipyard (the "Lindø" Yard)

The new shipyard originally had two building docks no. I and II (300 x 45 x 7,5 metres each) allowing the construction of tankers with up to 100,000 tdw. The Yard was enlarged in 1967 including a new very large building dock No. III (415 x 90 metres) and a great 800 ton., 95 Meters high, 148,5 Meters span gantry crane was added allowing the construction of tankers in VLCC and ULCC class. The largest construction planned on the yard were two 500,000 tdw tankers, but this order was later cancelled. From the 1960's until 1977 the yard only constructed oil-tankers (no larger than 330,000 tdw.) as well as bulk carriers. The first RORO ship was built in 1979, and the first container ship in 1980. In Dec. 1992, the yard completed the world's first 300,000 tdw double-hull tanker. In Jan.1996 they delivered its first Post-Panamax container ship. In Dec.1999 the gantry crane crashed after a hurricane in the building dock and damaged the ship newbuilding No.170, which must repaired and delivered two month later. MAN-TAKRAF; Leipzig / Germany deliverd a new 1000 ton., 110 Meter high ganty crane in April 2001.
