Onega Shipbuilding and Ship Repair Plant (Onega SSZ, located in Petrozavodsk) will build six shalands (barges for loading and unloading large-tonnage vessels at the roadstead, transporting land) for FSUE Rosmorport. The contract value is about 6.6 billion rubles.
The first vessel will be sent to the customer before December 1, 2026, the rest — before December 25, 2027. The shalands will be used in the port of Temryuk in the Krasnodar Territory.
Onega SSZ did not specify which project the vessels are. Previously, the company handed over self-propelled shalands of HB600 and HB900 projects of its own construction to FSUE Rosmorport.
