On December 5, at the withdrawal from a dry dock of a military shipyard in Mumbai (India), it overturned and lay on the port side of the 39A frigate F 16 Betwa, reports bmpd with reference to indiatoday.intoday.in.

The accident at the Indian shipyard: during the withdrawal from the dry dock overturned aboard the frigate Betwa




As a result of the accident, two crew members died and 14 suffered various injuries. The ship itself was seriously damaged.



"The frigate Betwa overturned during the withdrawal from the dry dock in Mumbai after the completion of the planned underwater repair since October," the report says.



BMPD Reference: “The F 39 Betwa was built at the Indian Garden Reach Shipbuilders & Engineers Ltd (GRSE) in Kolkata and entered service in July 2004, becoming the second of three Project 16A frigates (of the Brahmaputra class). Project 16A was developed on the basis of a hull and a steam turbine power plant built in India under a British license, but with the use of modern equipment and weapons (including the Russian Uran-E anti-ship missile system).

          This is not a matter of principle! The fact is clear.
          As the representative of the Indian Navy noted, presumably, the locking mechanism broke in the dock, with the help of which the frigate was kept in balance.

          According to NDTV, the Betwa frigate, with a displacement of 3,8 thousand tons, was put into operation in 2004. In 2014, after a collision with an unknown object, the radar fairing was damaged in it. After that, the ship was sent for repair to a dry dock.

            After landing on keel blocks and pumping water from the dock, the ship maintains balance under its own weight. At least that’s how we do it. Yes
            How can one manage to overturn a ship during a step-by-step ascent in the dock? Dock masters need to be drowned next to the creation of his hands! Really it was impossible to give a command in time to terminate the docking operation upon detection of a growing bank?

      The reason is not named, again the human factor, because there is enough sloppiness all over the world, not only among us or Indians. Or is there a technical malfunction? Without establishing a reason, it's hard to talk about anything. request

        6 December 2016 11: 39
        The reason can be only one - loss of stability during ascent. And the loss of stability is already a human factor, because the responsible officer had to calculate the stability before the ship was taken out of the dock (I don’t know who is responsible for this in the navy, the civilian is the senior assistant). In the dock, the ballast is completely given up, fuel is minimized. possible stock. Accordingly, before the withdrawal of the vessel (ship) from the dock, the ballast must be taken to ensure sufficient stability, and to do this when the vessel is still on the keel blocks. One can really assume the destruction of the kilblocks themselves .... But I never heard of such cases, although ... this is India ...

      So the Indian Navy never lagged behind. One S63 Sindhurakshak worth: in 2010 - an explosion on board while in the base. In 2013 - two explosions, the submarine sank right at the pier. The official reason is a violation of the rules of work due to the crew’s great fatigue (work on preparing the submarines for going out to sea was carried out around the clock).

      Before surfacing in the dock, conduct and check:

      - tidy dock and public places;

      - delivery of the docking instrument to the docmeister;

      - forest cleaning;

      - closing of all outboard openings and mouths of the double bottom space;

      - verification and placement of goods in accordance with the scheme when placing the ship in the dock;

      - consolidation of rolling and moving goods;

      Since the ship lost stability, it seems that some cargoes that have shifted, or they were moved after docking, weren’t hacked. Perhaps there was a flow of water inside the hull, although for this, during the ascent in the dock, a special stop is made to take water to check for the presence or absence of leaks.

      In the process of separation from the keel blocks, the ship has minimal stability, when, for example, the stern is torn away from the keel blocks, and the bow is still supported by them. At this moment, the ship is very easy to turn over.
      By the way, the same situation occurs when landing aground and surfacing a submarine from the ground.

        If it’s not difficult, explain, plz, how can a boat hung out on a flat keel when the buoyancy change (purge equalization or pulp and paper pulp) can turn over? or go aboard when you are off the ground? Or are you going to come up differently? probably changing the weight load? what

      Just need to be able to not drown. Docking and surfacing in the dock, high-risk events. During the transition of the meteorological center, the stability of the ship is zero, it can be overturned simply by slightly pushing it to the side.

        Boris, do you interpolate the process of submersion of a submarine (transition from NP to PP) on setting the NK to kilblocks ...
        When placing NK in the dock, no one unloads ballast (cast-iron 32kg pigs), only the tanks are drained. In any case, the metacentric height decreases not so critical as to overturn the NK. Yes

          I wrote somewhere a little bit higher or lower here. Surfacing in the dock is about the same situation when a ship sails aground or a boat comes up from the ground, when one part has already come off from the keel blocks, while the other one is still resting on them. In this position, it’s very easy to turn the boat over.

      Complicated. But you can:

      On July 5, the ship was brought into dry dock to cut holes for additional Kingstones. After the completion of the work on the evening of July 12, the filling of the dock began. When the water level reached the average cargo mark, the Kuban, instead of further ascent, began to heel to the port side. The immediately given order to batten down the coal ports, windows and other openings on the left side did not have time to be fulfilled, and the streams of water rushing through them quickly flooded the hold, lower rooms, engine rooms, boiler rooms and coal pits. As a result, "Kuban" lay on the bottom of the dock, leaning on it with its left side with a 23 ° roll.
      On the same day, the divers began to batten down coal ports and seal portholes, after which the forces of the port began pumping water. But only on July 15 at 12.30 the ship separated from the keelblocks and surfaced with a roll of 13 °. The final straightening was completed the next day. According to Mankovsky, this accident postponed the Kuban's readiness for sailing by 10 days, since upon leaving the dock it was necessary to unload the soiled coal, and then rest again to inspect the underwater part. Fortunately, there were no leaks in the hold, and the rudder and propellers were not damaged.

    A lot of things could go wrong:
    Preparation of the vessel for docking includes the removal of all variable cargoes (fuel, water, oil, etc.); reliable fastening of goods and mechanisms (cranes, arrows, davits) that can move; closing of all watertight portholes, necks, hatches, doors, etc. (the latter is also made after repair before the ascent of the vessel or the immersion of the dock); elimination of the ship's roll and minimizing the trim.
    A ship, docked and afloat, is installed above the supports on which it should sink after draining the chamber.
    The staging of the vessel must be performed with great accuracy, the correct combination of the ship's shipyard with dry dock shipyard. The trail of the latter is marked with glass with plumb lines, mounted exactly above the middle line of the keel blocks.
