11 ships will be built in Kostroma
Federal State Institution (FKU) Rechvodput has signed a state contract with Kostroma Shipbuilding Plant for construction of 11 measuring vessels.
The new vessels will be constructed under the project of the Gorky Central Design Bureau of the river fleet. They will be equipped with modern automated hydrographic complexes.
Some of the main advantages of the new vessels are high speed and accuracy of measurement, bottom scanning, possibility of creating a 3D-model of water area topography, as well as calculation and control of the volume of dredging operations. With the help of the complex it is possible to measure vessel passages with depth of 4 meters and width of 85 meters.
Under the contract the vessels are to be delivered before the end of 2023. The new vessels will be passed to inland waterways basin authorities.
Let us remind you that over the last two years a series of three such dimension vessels was built at Yaroslavl Shipyard.
