 June 12, at JSC Shipyard Zaliv a solemn ceremony of lead-out from the dry dock of two hulls of the vessels purposed at operation of offshore drilling platforms has taken place. The twin-vessels with the length of 89 m and the beam of 19 m each, were being constructed simultaneously in the dry dock of the yard, keel laying in the dry dock of the yard took place in December, last year. Zaliv has carried out construction of these ships on order of Norwegian Holding Company Ulstein Hull As. Partnership relations between the two companies are affirmed by the long-term intentions memorandum signed in November 2007 within the frames of which active work on realization of joint shipbuilding projects is being fulfilled. “Today shipbuilding sector suffers an evident slump all over the world and I am very glad that in such stiff environment Zaliv continues to demonstrate success of its work by delivering ships with excellent quality and in advance of contract terms” Nikolay Kuzmenko, Chairman of Supervisory Board of JSC Shipyard Zaliv says. Moreover, we have demonstrated one more time that we are able to realize unique projects.
