Bangladesh Economic & Infrastructure Development - Updates & Discussions

In Bangladesh we hear about Govt. shipyards like those in N'Ganj and Khulna and private shipyards like Western Marine, but not many talk about Karnafuly, which is a huge yard in their own right.

As the need for Tugboats (of various sizes) and Large Cutter suction dredgers in Bangladesh have exploded, Karnafuly has risen to meet the challenge (forming a large scale JV with internationally renowned suppliers of dredgers, such as IHC Holland and VOSTA LMG). This is an image of the tugboats and dredgers in their yard in various stages of build-progress (not a video link below).

Another piece of great news is that other than CDDL in the Govt. sector, Karnafuly themselves have taken on the job of building the second super high capacity Dry dock of their own accord in Bangladesh. This drydock will be able to handle a 100,000 DWT vessel (অথবা দুই থেকে তিনটা ফ্রিগেট ), এইবার বুইজা লন . 8-)
