The Minister of Defense indicated that it is necessary to increase the number of people and equipment to work at the facility

MURMANSK, April 13. /TASS/. Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu demanded to increase the pace and quality of work during the reconstruction and technical re-equipment of the dry dock of the 35th ship repair plant, located in Murmansk, the project is implemented by the Ship Repair Center "Zvezdochka" (part of the USC group of companies).

Shoigu noted that a clear schedule is needed to build up forces and resources during the implementation of the project as new areas of work open up. In particular, he pointed out that it is necessary to increase the number of people and equipment to work at the facility.

The Minister was informed that now about 400 people and several dozen pieces of equipment are involved here. According to Shoigu, these forces are clearly not enough to ensure the proper pace of such large-scale work, which must be carried out around the clock. Especially, as the minister noted, when there is a backlog from the schedule.

At the same time, Shoigu did not accept the explanations of the USC management that the first contractor was unscrupulous, the work was carried out poorly and had to be replaced. "All these explanations are not accepted. We need a dock, we need to repair and modernize the aircraft carrier Admiral Kuznetsov, " Shoigu said.

Dock reconstruction project

The project, which is implemented by the Ship Repair Center "Zvezdochka", provides for the transformation of the existing two-chamber dry dock into a single-chamber one with a significant increase in the area and depth of the dock structures. The reconstruction of the dock will significantly expand the capabilities of the 35th ship repair plant in terms of performing dock work.

After the reconstruction is completed, the Zvezdochki Murmansk branch dock will become the largest dock facility in the Russian Arctic zone and will be able to accept large-displacement vessels and ships, such as nuclear-powered icebreakers, heavy missile and aircraft-carrying cruisers, for dock work.

The reconstruction of the dry dock of the 35th ship Repair plant is a key factor in the timely completion of the factory repair and modernization of the heavy aircraft carrier Admiral Kuznetsov of the Fleet of the Soviet Union.
