Russian Naval Shipbuilding Industry: News

Google translate wrote:Zhenhua Heavy Industry ( stock ) enters the Russian market and will cooperate with Russia's largest shipbuilding group, the Russian Federation Shipbuilding Group, in the field of shipbuilding and shipbuilding equipment production.

The Russian United Shipbuilding Group stated that on March 22, the company signed a memorandum of understanding on cooperation and joint operations with Shanghai Zhenhua Heavy Industry (Group) Co., Ltd. The two sides agreed to establish a working group and develop a road map for the implementation of the content of the memorandum.

Sources pointed out that Russia and the United Shipbuilding Group and Shanghai Zhenhua Heavy Industries said the two sides intend to achieve Zhenhua Heavy Industries modern marine equipment localization of production work in Russia for the construction of floating crane ( Product Library Buy supplies ), pipes and cables ( Product library purchase and supply ) laying ship, dredging ship, super large cargo ship, drilling platform ( ship type shipyard trading ) auxiliary ship.

The Russian United Shipbuilding Group (USC) was established in 2007, integrating 100% of the state-owned joint-stock companies in Russia's domestic shipbuilding industry, and Russia's largest shipbuilding group. The group has a total of 33 ship design and construction shipyards. The newly established head office consists of nine construction bureaus and three regional shipbuilding centres. The Western Shipbuilding Center consists of seven companies; the Northwest Shipbuilding Center consists of five companies; and the Far East Shipbuilding Center consists of 10 companies. There are both military shipyards and civilian shipyards.

In the following years, the Russian United Shipbuilding Group established two large shipyards, Zvezda DSME and Vostok-Raffles, in the Far East through cooperation with foreign companies (including Daewoo Shipbuilding and Yantai Raffles). In September 2016, Hyundai Heavy Industries ( ship hangar location ) established a joint venture with the Russian Joint Shipbuilding Far East Shipbuilding and Repairing Center (Russian United Shipbuilding Holding Company) to focus on ship design and shipbuilding project management.

It is understood that Zhenhua Heavy Industry has already prepared for entering Russia. In November 2015, Zhenhua Heavy Industries' Russian subsidiary was formally incorporated. Russia's strong industrial base, research strength in metal materials, welding ( Product Library Buy Supply ) technology, wear-resistant corrosion made great achievements, but the overall infrastructure is weak, Zhenhua Port Machinery and equipment, marine vessels The market potential is huge.

The cooperation with the Russian joint shipbuilding group has laid a solid foundation for Zhenhua Heavy Industry to further develop the Russian and CIS countries.

VOSTOK-RAFFLS Joint-Stock Company (hereinafter referred to as the Company) was registered on 07.05.2010 in Vladivostok and is a joint venture of the Far Eastern Shipbuilding and Repair Center JSC and the Singapore-based VOSTOK OFFSHORE PTE . LTD ”included in the group of companies of PJSC“ NK “Rosneft”.

The main purpose of the Society is to implement the project of a modern shipyard for offshore shipbuilding in the Far East of Russia. The construction site of the new shipbuilding complex of Vostok-Raffles JSC is located in the Bay of Five Hunters of the Ussuri Bay in the Shkotovsky district of the Primorsky Territory. The project to create a shipyard of offshore shipbuilding JSC "Vostok Ruffles" is the II stage of construction of the SCC "Zvezda" (the planned construction period 2021-2024 ).

The shipbuilding complex “Zvezda” is located at two sites in the southern part of the Primorsky Territory on the western coast of Peter the Great Bay of the Sea of ​​Japan, on the coast of the Ussuriysk Gulf in the Bolshoy Kamen Bay and in the Bay of Five Hunters.

The project of creating a shipyard of Vostok-Raffles JSC is the III phase of construction of the Svk Zvezda (the planned construction period is 2021-2024).

The project is implemented in 3 stages.

Stage 1 - Block production facilities and painting chambers.

Phase 2 - Open outbuilding heavy stocks with saturation workshops, dry dock and outbuilding workshops.

Stage 3 - Workshop unit and dry dock in Mysovaya settlement ( Vostok-Raffles site)

Design is carried out in two stages.

The essence of a two-stage design is that the documentation necessary for construction is not compiled immediately, but in stages: at the first stage (“I stage”) decisions are made on general issues of principle, then such decisions are comprehensively evaluated, corrected, approved and only after elimination of all identified deficiencies detailed working documentation for construction is being compiled. The advantage of such a system is to minimize the cost of processing project documentation in case of unsuccessful common solutions.

In the two-stage design work is divided into 2 stages:

- Stage Project (P)

- stage Working documentation (PD)

At the Project stage, the main architectural-planning and constructive decisions (including the master plan), decisions on engineering equipment and networks are made without specification. When designing environmental management facilities at this stage, decisions of a fundamental nature are made concerning the choice of the type of structure, its location, the main design decisions, the method of construction, etc. For industrial enterprises, schematic diagrams of technological processes are selected, general issues of management and labor protection are solved. Consolidated estimates are carried out, issues of construction organization are solved. A mandatory element of the project is the environmental section.

To compile the project, special engineering surveys are ordered and performed. Such surveys are done in a reduced volume, but they should allow to draw conclusions about the suitability of the site, the preference of one or another type of foundation (shallow, pile, deep supports, etc.), i.e. allow to solve general issues of principle.

Basically it will be managed together with Zvezda but it is a different site in, Vladivostok,  not in Balshoi kamen where Zvezda is.

yes, I know but it's still "Part of" Zvezda shipyard it was never its own thing. This from day one part of it.

I am pointing out people are going to think suddenly there are two new major shipyards when it's always been part of the same exact plan since day one, so this isn't news.

Like they can't build a carrier at this site it's just for the repair of large hull vessels since Vlad doesn't really have that ability atm.

SeigSoloyvov wrote:When I part of, I mean the plan. This was part of the original plan.

I don't think that site is being enlarged to the point it can build something like a Lider, remember a lider is like a17kish size ship.

That's a Guided Missile Cruiser, frigate sure they could manage it there, 10k ton DDs? sure probs could.
