17,000 Tons Fleet Tanker

Karachi Shipyard is presently building 17000 tons Fleet Tanker for Pakistan Navy. The construction of the vessel started on 27 November 2013 with steel cutting and subsequently keel laying was performed on 7 March 2014. The construction of the vessel is progressing rapidly and will be launched by mid 2016.

PNFT will provide not only logistic support to PN units at high seas but can also undertake ASW/ASvW operation through embarked helicopter. PNFT will be built under the Class and will comply with IMO and MARPOL regulations envogue. For this, the ship is of double hull configuration. It is propelled by two diesel driven engines with controllable pitch propeller and can achieve a top speed of 20 knots. There are 4 x DGs for electrical power generation. With overall length of 158.4 m and maximum width of 22.0 m, the ship has scantling displacement of 17000 tons.

Contract for indigenous construction of a Fleet Tanker for Pakistan Navy was signed on 22 Jan 2013 between Ministry of Defence Production (MoDP), Pakistan and M/s STM of Turkey. As per the said contract, design of the ship alongwith Kit of Material (KoM) will be provided by M/s STM, whereas complete construction, outfitting, and trials will be undertaken by KS&EW. PN Fleet Tanker (PNFT) is the largest warship to be built in country to date.

This is very small when compared to INS JYOTI
All the best for karachi shipyard.

I think u didn't understand my point or i wasn't clear...I say a fleet tanker is a crucial asset of any navies in the world . Here some said your fleet tanker is about 17,000 ton . I was just asking why don't they (PN) order a big ship with long service life .
I wont gain any thing by comparing indian navy by her pakistan navy .

INS Jyoti was built as a merchant tanker by the Russians and its the second largest ship in the IN,only our AC,Vikramaditya is larger than Jyoti. Its unfair to compare the PN tanker to Jyoti.

With a 15k displacement,PN Tanker will be well suited for its role. Congrats to Pakistan,good news seems to come in loads for you folks these days. Shaheen,buraqs and now a new tanker! Congrats and all the best.

Sir i never compared jyoti to PN. I was just saying that fleet tanker should be big in size.Since fleet tanker is a crucial asset for a navy.

15k is big enough,considering the size of PN. Besides this is not going to be the only tanker in PN service.

 

[Aepsilons]

Looks great ! Question, Sir, will the PN be using ASW choppers for this?
