Atomflot chooses a shipyard for the construction of a floating dock

15
Federal State Unitary Enterprise Atomflot has begun the selection of a shipyard that will build a floating dock for routine repairs of the Arctic-Siberian, Siberian and Ural icebreakers LK-60 icebreakers under construction at the Baltzavod (part of USK). Kommersant.



According to newspaper sources, the main difficulty is the size of the dock - there are only a few shipyards in the Russian Federation that have the capacity to build it. Negotiations are underway with Baltzavod, the Zvezda shipyard in Primorye and the Gulf plant in Kerch.

“The exact parameters of the dock are not disclosed, but, based on the size of LC-60 (length 170 m, width 34 m), the dock will be about 40 m in width and up to 200 m in length,” the article says.

The USC confirmed the availability of Atomflot's proposal to build a dock.

“We are currently negotiating this project, including with the involvement of our leasing company (Goznak-Leasing). The construction of a dock at Baltzavod is being considered in cooperation with the Northern Shipyard, ”the corporation said.

According to the publication's interlocutors, Baltzavod looks better from a logistics point of view (Zvezda is also not the most convenient option). However, according to the newspaper, during the last negotiations that took place between Atomflot and Baltzavod a week ago, the company did not accept the proposed price.

The head of Infoline-Analitics, Mikhail Burmistrov, noted that "a floating dock in Europe would be built almost twice as fast and for the same price as in the Russian Federation, and China wins both in price and in terms of terms." But “Atomflot” is unlikely to succeed in concluding a contract with foreign shipyards, the analyst believes: this order is “a strategic task and will not pass the commission on import substitution”.

According to the project, the dock should be commissioned in 2020 – 2022, the floating timeframe is related to the construction time and the receipt of icebreakers.

    specialists + capacities = terms. an equation that we solve with difficulty, but still solve.

      Why rack your brains, there will be a Star and there is a ready Gulf (which still needs to be put in order) - so choose who will make it cheaper. The Baltzavod is already loaded, they dragged some kind of logistics here - a floating dock - wherever you want and put it there, and once to get to the right place is not a big problem.

        here I agree with Corsair 0304, they will probably build a dock taking into account the leader.

    “The exact parameters of the dock are not disclosed, but, based on the dimensions of the LK-60 (length 170 m, width 34 m), the dock will be about 40 m wide and up to 200 m long”
    They will probably build even more, based on the promising icebreaker "Leader"

    I see no reason to build two different floating docks: For Siberia and for the Leader.

        I believe that still not for everyone. Two out of three will definitely work, and the third will undergo docking and scheduled repairs. Otherwise, the expediency of building such expensive projects is lost.

    "The head of Infoline Analytics, Mikhail Burmistrov, noted that" a floating dock in Europe would be built almost twice as fast and at the same price as in the Russian Federation, and China wins both in price and in terms of time. "

    Is this one this analyst thinks so, or is one of the serious people too? Badly, this figure oversees the meetings of the president, at which they discuss the participation of foreign manufacturers in strategic orders. Which is unforgivable for the head of an analytical agency. Yes, and the story of the Mistrals, probably already forgotten by gentlemen analysts.

    And rightly so that you can not order abroad. We need to learn and develop the practice of building floating docks ourselves. Heavy? Yes! Time and time? Yes! But without this, our shipyards will not finally stand on their feet. It is not enough to build a ship, it is also necessary to ensure its scheduled repair and maintenance.

    All right, such orders, we must learn to build ourselves.

    It is necessary to give loading to the Crimean factory "Bay". They, after the construction of the Crimean bridge, will remain almost without load! And here is such an opportunity. The remaining plants are already in orders!

    What it means
    Atomflot is unlikely to conclude a contract with foreign shipyards
    ?? It’s the same as saying “it’s unlikely to steal budget money and run away.” This Burmistrov, therefore, is the fifth column. You have to be either a moron or a traitor in order not to understand the significance of the development of strategic technologies in your country, no matter how much it costs now.
