STX shipbuilding flat construction of 51,000 tons of chemical tanker launched in 30 days

In late January, South Korea's STX Shipbuilding Company made a significant achievement by successfully launching a 51,000 dwt chemical tanker for the Italian shipping company Aba Ba. The vessel was launched from the flat ground of its Zhenhai Shipyard, marking a major milestone in ship construction technology. What stood out was the remarkable reduction in the construction timeline, which was cut from the original 52 days down to just 30 days—far quicker than traditional dock-based construction methods. The ship was launched using a sliding chute system, allowing it to glide directly onto a barge connected to the shore without the need for a dry dock. This innovative approach not only accelerated the process but also demonstrated STX's growing expertise in efficient and cost-effective shipbuilding. The successful launch highlights the company's commitment to innovation and its ability to meet international standards in maritime engineering.
