Sri Lanka Sells Ships to India
Lakshadweep Sea, a 250-passenger vessel built for India by Sri Lanka set sail off the shores of Colombo on Thursday.
The Colombo Dockyard PLC, the world renowned ship builder flagged off the second 100 ton cargo vessel built for the Administration of Union Territories of Lakshadweep, India.
The vessel joined her sister vessel, Arabian Sea which was launched in January and will operate en route from India to UTL islands and inter island routes.
Designed and built with the latest technology, the vessel is highly conducive for operation in toughest weather conditions. The two vessels will provide relief to thousands of commuters.
Lakshadweep is the second passenger vessel of class to be built by the Colombo Dockyard which has a series of achievements as a marine engineering giant in the region.
The building process had to adhere to stringent quality control and safety standards to ensure appropriateness in material and machinery of the ship.
Colombo Dockyard is an ISO 9001:2008 certified company with its own superior quality control and assurance procedures. It is the first time Sri Lanka was awarded the construction of two large passenger vessels for the government of India.
