Torsdagens udmelding fra ejerne om, at Hirtshals Yard står foran lukning i begyndelsen af 2025, beklages af Hjørring Kommunes borgmester:

“Lukningen af Hirtshals Yard er en trist nyhed for både de ansatte og for Hirtshals by. Værftet har gennem mange år været en vigtig arbejdsplads og en stærk aktør i den maritime sektor her i Hjørring Kommune,” siger Søren Smalbro (V) til Søfart.

Han glæder sig dog over, at den del af aktiviteterne videreføres i Vestkajens Maskinværksted, hvor 12 af de 32 værftsarbejdere har fået ansættelse.

Ud over de 20 medarbejdere, der bliver ledige skal fire ud af seks lærlinge finde nye elevpladser, oplyser direktøren for Hirtshals Yard, Anders Hecht-Pedersen til Søfart.

Baggrunden for værftslukningen er, at efterspørgslen på dokninger og ombygninger, der passer til værftets kapacitet, har været vigende samtidig med, at værftet ikke har mulighed for at finansiere den kapacitetsudvidelse, der ville være nødvendig for en fortsættese af driften.
