Abu Dhabi Ship Building (ADSB) has signed an agreement with Rolls-Royce to further improve its customer service for Kamewa waterjets in the Middle East.

The contract is the third services-related venture to be announced this year involving Rolls-Royce and Mubadala Development Company (Mubadala), the investment arm of the Emirate of Abu Dhabi, which holds a 40% stake in ADSB.

"This agreement with Rolls-Royce will enable ADSB to offer its customers in the Arabian Gulf an enhanced level of service and long term regional support that will complement the refits, upgrades and repairs we perform and the new vessels we provide,” said William Saltzer, chief executive officer, ADSB.
