Shipbuilding and
Repair Yards.
Shipbuilding, conversion and naval repair serving the waterway.
Our Infrastructure.
INAVE GROUP operates two shipyards strategically located on the Paraguay River, capable of simultaneously accommodating up to 12 vessels across a 13-hectare infrastructure with approximately 250 meters of operational riverfront under constant expansion, making our shipyards a benchmark on the Paraguayan waterway.
All our welding procedures are approved by classification societies Nippon Kaiji Kyokai (ClassNK) and RINA (Registro Italiano Navale), underRecommandation IACS N° 47 standards. Our naval welders and fitters hold international qualifications, and all materials used in construction and repair are steel plates certified to ASTM A131 standard.
We build and repair vessels adapted to the specific conditions of the Paraguayan waterway — draft fluctuations, large-scale convoy maneuvering and the need for immediate technical response — both in dry-dock and afloat.

Our Services.
1.
Shipbuilding & Conversion
At our shipyards, we build and convert tugboats, barges, sand dredgers, dredges, workboats, floating cranes, and multipurpose vessels, tailored to the operational requirements of the Paraguayan waterway. We have an in-house engineering team and naval design tools (AutoCAD, Maxsurf, Rhino) for the comprehensive development of construction and conversion projects.
2.
Naval Repair
We carry out general hull and structural repairs, including disassembly and repair of shaft lines, propellers, rudders, bushings and valves, both in dry-dock and afloat, under IACS Recommendation No. 47 standards.
3.
Blasting & Painting
We apply sandblasting and certified naval coating enamels, ensuring structural protection and long-term durability for every vessel we service.
4.
Naval Engineering
Our shipyards have an in-house engineering department for the comprehensive development of construction and conversion projects. Our engineers use specialized software (AutoCAD, Maxsurf, Rhino) and work in compliance with the standards of the leading classification societies — DNV, ABS, Lloyd’s Register, RINA, and ClassNK — ensuring technical precision and regulatory compliance on every project.
