Jianglong Shipbuilding Co.,Ltd is to deliver two steel-aluminum pilot boats to Nigerian Ports Authority (NPA), which is a Federal Government Agency that governs and operates the ports in Nigeria, under the supervision of the Federal Ministry of Transportation.
The pilot boats are made of steel hull and aluminum superstructure to keep the strength for collision and lighten the weight to achieve less fuel consumption and less emission under the same navigation speed.
The pilot boats are surveyed and classified by Bureau Veritas (BV), with stability to carry out operations in coastal area. The main dimensions are as following:Length of overall: 21.00m; Beam: 5.00m; Depth: 2.70m; Main engine: CAT; Speed: 21knots; Complement:12. A rest room is arranged for accommodation under the main deck, with two bunk beds, a washroom and a pantry in it.
Jianglong Shipbuilding Co.,Ltd has delivered a batch of 38m aluminum patrol boats to Nigeria in 2019, and we believe the delivery of two pilot boats will enforce the foundation for the further cooperation between NPA and Jianglong Shipbuilding Co.,Ltd.
