Construction of the first domestic vessel for catching and transporting live crab under project 6135 will begin at the Nobel Brothers Shipyard.
The vessel will be intended for operation in the waters of the northeastern and northwestern parts of the Pacific Ocean and will be equipped with modern equipment for catching crab using conical traps, sorting, weighing and transporting 80-100 tons of crustaceans in insulated tanks with cooled seawater.
Dmitry Bystrov, General Director of the shipyard, noted that the Nobel Brothers Shipyard has experience in creating crab fishing vessels that meet international standards. The shipyard uses modern technologies to improve the comfort of sailors' work and automate processes.
Bystrov also confirmed that the shipyard is ready to complete the project with high quality and on time, emphasizing that this is a new challenge for the enterprise and its employees. The vessel will be built as part of the second stage of the "Quotas for Keels" program, which aims to develop domestic shipbuilding and increase its technological capabilities.
