The first stage of Russia's first digital shipyard is being prepared for launch in Petrozavodsk, based at the Onega Shipbuilding and Ship Repair Plant. The launch ceremony will take place on January 15 and will be attended by the Assistant to the President of Russia, Chairman of the Maritime Board of the Russian Federation, Nikolai Patrushev.
The digital shipyard will help develop automated digital production, managed by intelligent systems in real time. Most production processes — design, engineering, assembly, management, and accounting — will be automated. This will help speed up production, reduce project costs, and minimize possible errors by employees during shipbuilding and ship repair.
It is also known that a domestic information system for digital shipyards has already been developed in St. Petersburg. The Onega Shipbuilding and Ship Repair Plant will also be the pilot site for its implementation.
