The company M.A. Flint GmbH & Co. gave up the business areas of diving and salvage in 2004, so the name “Taucher Flint” (lit. “Diver Flint”) is no longer entirely accurate.

The Norderwerft, founded in 1905, features two docks and three mooring quays. The shipyard employs around 100 people, working in the fields of ship repairs, reconstruction, production of equipment and general services.
