ISLAMABAD: A state-of-the-art 3,000 tonne survey ship prepared by Pakistan Navy was unveiled in China’s Yang Zong where it was put afloat in River Yangtze.

It is the most advanced survey ship made by Pakistan Navy which will enhance the scope of marine research in the country.

The vessel was made with the joint cooperation of Pakistan and China.

The survey ship will also provide services related to operations of water search and locating positions.

Addressing the ceremony, Chief Naval Overseas Commodore Asaf Humayun, who was the special guest for the ceremony, said the new survey ship even in uncommon conditions has the additional capability of carrying out operations.

He also said that the ship also carries the most advanced survey equipment which adds to the abilities of the Pakistan Navy to carry out a geographical survey.

The special guest commended the Best Way group and Dogen Shipyard and those people associated with the project for completing the important milestone of launching the project on time.

What do you mean ? Does it have any secondary role

 

[Armani]

3000t is a huge displacement for a mapping boat.

Seems pretty normal.

IN currently has 7 x 2000t survey ships that perform similar role. And GRSE shipyard got contract to build 5 new 3000t survey ships.

The reason why survey vessels are big is not solely because of the equipment they carry but because they also need to have long range, often independent of oilers i.e. need to store more fuel & supplies.

I don't understand why KSEW cant build the basic structure!! Fit out can be done by the Chinese on contract!!

If one an build a 25,000 ton cargo vessel how difficult it would be to design a 3,000 ton vessel based upon a commercial design or scaled down version of a cargo vessel??

Beats me!!!

Navy is going through a metamorphosis, and wants to place various assets in place, rapidly only the Chinese can do that.

That can be a reason but KSEW has been a lemon on many other occasions!

Look at the Iranians, without much foreign help and scarcity of foreign exchange, they have pulled off a number of coup's in maritime self sufficiency.

Yes I do agree, that the yard has to be reorganised for its new responsibilities.
