A Canadian maritime group dating to 1886, providing shipbuilding, ship repair, marine transportation, and commercial ferry services along the Pacific Northwest coast.
Seaspan is a Canadian association of companies operating across the maritime sector, with roots dating to 1886. Its activities span shipbuilding, ship repair and refit, marine transportation, marine construction, commercial ferry services, fuel bunkering, and tug and barge operations. The group is part of The Washington Companies and its operations are concentrated on the Pacific Northwest coast, with principal sites in Vancouver and Victoria, British Columbia.
The organisation comprises three units. Seaspan Shipyards is Canada's shipbuilder under the National Shipbuilding Strategy, constructing vessels for the Canadian Coast Guard and the Royal Canadian Navy from three facilities: Vancouver Shipyards, Vancouver Drydock, and Victoria Shipyards. Seaspan Marine provides ship assist, coastal and deep-sea transportation, fuel bunkering, and marine construction support through a fleet of tugs and barges. Seaspan Ferries operates daily commercial ferry services on the Vancouver Island supply chain route, with more than 100 years of experience serving it.
Revenue exposure is diversified across government and defence vessel construction, commercial marine services, and freight logistics, a mix shaped by long-cycle public shipbuilding contracts alongside recurring transport and bunkering demand. The company states core values of Safety, Care, Efficiency, and Accountability, together with commitments to Indigenous Peoples, environmental stewardship, and social responsibility in the communities where it operates.
