Northern shipyard: "Elbrus" went to the state tests
The shipyard "Severnaya Verf" (included in USC JSC) completed factory running trials of the logistics ship Elbrus of the 23120 project. Now the ship began state tests, which should end in July, told the "Military Review" in press-service PJSC Shipbuilding Plant "Severnaya Verf"
The chief builder of the 23120 project, Kirill Marugin, noted that the most crucial stage of the ZHI was the testing of the ship's automated system. The performance of the system is rated positively. "Elbrus", adopted by 2 June for state testing (GI), went to the Baltic. Representatives of the customer of the vessel, the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation, study on it the documentation prepared by the transfer team, the operation of the mechanisms and equipment. After passing all the necessary checks, the rear support vessel will return to the Northern shipyard for a short time, replenish supplies of fuel and food, and at the end of June will go to the northern latitudes for the final stage of state tests. During GI, the ship’s navigational qualities, the operation of a multibeam echo sounder and cathodic protection systems will be checked. Also tests of the transfer of cargo to the vessel from the air.
In mid-July, all tests must be completed, after which the vessel will undergo an audit of technical equipment and will be presented for acceptance to the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation.
"Elbrus" - the lead logistic support vessel for the 23120 project. The project was developed by the St. Petersburg Design Bureau "Spetssudoproekt". The construction of another ship of this project, the Vsevolod Bobrov, is continuing at the Northern shipyard.
Among the innovations foreseen by the project are a dynamic positioning system that allows to keep the vessel at a given point in all weather conditions, two electrohydraulic cranes with a load capacity of 50 tons, towing winches with a pull force of 120 and 25 tons, a cargo deck of more than 700 square. m. and others. The vessel is multifunctional: it can carry out loading, transportation and transfer of cargo; at the expense of a powerful power plant to tow ships, right up to the aircraft carrier; to participate in rescue operations and provide medical assistance to those in distress (the vessel is equipped with a pressure chamber for decompression); carry out mapping of the bottom topography and search for sunken objects. The hull of the vessel with the ice class ARC4 will allow it to walk in arctic latitudes, overcoming the thickness of the ice in 0,6 m.
The main characteristics of the vessel:
• length - 95 m;
• width - 22 m;
• draft - 9 m;
• speed - 18 nodes
• displacement - 9 500 t;
• cruising range - 5 000 nautical miles;
• autonomy - about 60 days;
• crew - 27 people.
