What JOME Engineering does

JOME Engineering L.L.C. is a privately-held UAE ship repair and marine/offshore services provider headquartered in Dubai Industrial City, with operational branches in Dubai Maritime City and Port of Fujairah. The company delivers a comprehensive ship repair portfolio spanning afloat, lay-by, and docking repairs; main and auxiliary engine overhauling; structural steel and pipeline renewal; component reconditioning; marine electrical and automation services; and condition monitoring. It serves ship owners, maritime operators, and offshore energy companies, supported by a 352+ (approximately 400 per About section) workforce distributed across fabrication, machine shop, mechanical, automation, carpentry, and inspection divisions, with 881+ completed projects to date. The company is officially registered across all UAE ports, holds ISO 9001 certification from SGS, and operates a 160,000 sq.ft. workshop equipped with CNC machines, horizontal lathes, crankshaft grinding, water jet cutting, and plasma cutting equipment.

Technology and AI capability center on specialized condition monitoring tools: an AI-powered drone inspection system approved by eight classification societies (ABS, DNV, LR, CLASSNK, BV, RINA, KRS, IRCLASS), delivered through partnerships with Global Drone Inspection and a 2026 consortium with 3DTS and SteelCorr whose computer vision platform analyzes drone imagery for corrosion and coating degradation; a proprietary Liner Diameter Measuring Instrument (LDM) for 2-stroke cylinder liners; a Dynamic Balancing Machine; a Laser Alignment Tool; and an advanced Laser Cladding Machine for precision component reconditioning. DNV-approved welders and blasting/painting facilities support fabrication services for BWTS, scrubbers, tanks, and pipe spools.

JOME generates revenue primarily through project-based professional services contracts (ship repair, overhauling, condition monitoring, fabrication, electrical/automation) and hardware sales of marine spare parts supplied via partnerships with manufacturers in Korea, Japan, and Europe. Pricing is quote-based and project-specific, not publicly disclosed. The company employs a direct sales-led GTM motion, delivering 24/7 onboard repair services to vessels at UAE ports without intermediaries. It participates in the UAE Shipbuilders Consortium led by Noatum Maritime alongside AD Ports Group, SAFEEN Drydocks, and other major regional players to strengthen domestic maritime coordination. The company was founded by Mustafa Zaveri, who serves as Managing Director.
