Re: A mighty event at work!
This is valued at roughly 280 crore. The profit margins are still very less since we have already delayed the delivery.
Exactly. The ship is divided into several blocks which is fabricated in different areas. More like this:
Plates>Panels>Blocks>Mega Blocks>Ship
3 years maybe. S.Koreans and Japanese yards does it in under 6~8 months.
lol so do I.

Re: A mighty event at work!
I do multitasking! :bleh:
On a serious note, I am involved in the designing part so I sit in front of my workstation most of the time working in Autocad, Pro-E and Matlab. Unless production dept. calls us for some clarification. And we visit the yard at least thrice a week to go check if things are in place like how we have issued the drawings.

Re: A mighty event at work!
^Next year we will have the other ship which is very similar, ready to be launched. I'll keep you guys posted. And ask HR beforehand, if a massive crowd from my end can be entertained. I don't think there should be any problems either.
A hard hat is just the requirement when you step into the yard as a visitor.

Wooah. This sounds good. I would seriously not mind coming to see something like this, and have a TE meet up too.

Re: A mighty event at work!
^Not sure man. My boss wants to send me along for her trials but the production and QC depts. get priorities over design folks.
Besides, while headed for trials, we need loads of food to be stored for the 3~4 days when she will be at anchorage outside Bombay waters since so much food cannot be cooked inside the galley for 30+ members - the ship operated with 18 crew members during her voyage. So calls for a lot of expense.
Let's see how it goes.

Re: A mighty event at work!
For the crew, yes but very limited speed since it has to rely on specific satellites for telephony, GPS and internet. Not for us builders when we go for trials. :lol:
The worst part is sea sickness. Forget air sickness, some say the crew puke blood during extremely bad weathers when the ship begins to roll. I cannot imagine what the crew has to go through. This vessel has the accommodation quarters in the forward as you may notice in the snaps which is far worse for a ship. A vast majority of vessels have it in the aft region which is ideal.
When I went to Bombay to visit one of her sister ships, the crew complained of bad conditions which forced some of them to sleep in the mess rooms leaving their personal rooms!
