Shipbuilding Stages of Construction

  • Fabrication

– Cutting of parts from raw material – Forming of parts

  • Subassembly

– Joining of parts by welding to create interim products up to ~20 tonnes

  • Block Assembly

– Assembly of 12m x 12m standard hull blocks

  • Pre-Outfitting

– Installation of outfit on hull blocks

  • Blast and Paint

– Abrasive blasting for surface preparation – Coating of hull structure and outfit items

  • Pre-Erection

– Joining of blocks to create grand blocks

  • Erection

– Erecting and joining of grand blocks to create the vessel
