On September 8, the eighth (the last one of the series) non-self-propelled B2000 project vessel designed for operation on the Southern Buh River was launched at NIBULON shipbuilding and repair yard.
NIBULON says the vessel was launched without stopping the working process as according to the shipyard’s director Dmytro Horbenko, the shipbuilders are busy constructing a high-capacity self-propelled dredger. It will be launched at the end of this week.
According to the statement, the company has a clear strategy to revive Ukrainian rivers as transport waterways. It has positive feedback and is supported by both international community and Ukrainian specialists. NIBULON invests a lot of money with the support of the EIB, EBRD and IFC in the development of Ukrainian shipbuilding and infrastructure.
