ENGINEERING

he Engineering Department is one the

main sections at Baku Shipyard that
contains specialized engineers from all
necessary sections: hull-outfitting, mechanical,
piping, accommodation, electrical, naval architecturedesign.
All our engineers are graduates of top-ranked
universities in Azerbaijan, France, Singapore and
most of them have gained a great working practice in Singapore.
BSY engineers have experience both at shipbuilding and ship repair. By integrating the latest
software and technologies, such as
AutoCAD, SACS, ANSYS, Rhinoceros, SM3D,
and many others, our talented engineers with a
wide range of experience construct from basic
design to G-code making and craft a premium
-quality end product that will always exceed your
highest expectations.

TTS - Ship Transfer System

supported by the water, a total compliant medium

which allows the vessel to receive support where
applied by displacement on the hull of the vessel,
thus providing the pressure necessary to support the
distributed weight of the vessel. The compliancy
provided by the buoyancy forces does not impose
point loads on the vessels hull.
TTS is capable to determined very accurate weight
and COG (LCG, TCG) of any vessel, pontoon, barge
etc. It gives a big specter of possibility, for example
calculation of exact quantity of ballast which should
be add before launching vessel.
Block assembly mode of transferring system allows
the shipyard to build mega blocks without being
limited by crane. By using trolleys lifting system,
motor and manipulators the system can accurately
position a block for assembly. This operation can be
done without using crane.

The Ship Transfer System is designed to transfer load

onto floating dock and unload from the floating dock.
While at shore, the transfer system can move the
ship longitudinally/transversely into specific working
position/dry berths.
TTS is transferring vessels on fluid bed mode (zone
mode). TTS fluid bed a condition equal to the
ships buoyance condition. A vessel is designed to be

SHIPBUILDING

lthough our shipyard is just 3 years old,

we have already realized several huge
projects, such as building of Floating
Dock, Tug Boat, Crew Boats, Subsea Construction
Vessel, Pontoons for Semi etc. Baku Shipyard has
annual production capacity equal to 25 000 tons of
steel. In shipbuilding scale is equal to 4 x 15000 ton
or 2 x 75000 ton tankers, 4 x 100m Platform supply
vessel, etc.

Socar-1 designed and built as steel hull, twin

screw tug boat equipped with two diesel propulsion engines totally 400 PS and two 360 degree
steerable propellers with nozzles and engaged in
berthing and unbrething for a ship in the harbor
and towage in coastal waters. Now the vessel is
under balance of Azerbaijan Caspian Shipping
JSV and makes towing works for big vessels, barges in Caspian Sea. Vessel capable of performing
towage, assistance, berthing of large containerships, bulk carriers, VLCCs in the ports with
capability for fire-fighting and oil pollution control. The new tug is expected to be used to
support Bakus new port and its operations.

for stage two of the development the largest

vessel is planned to perform subsea construction
activities on the Shah Deniz field between 2017
and 2027. The $378 million facility is a unique
vessel built under DNV (Det Norske Veritas)
GL's classification supervision. SCV Khankendi
is jointly constructed at both Keppel Singmarines
shipyard and Baku Shipyard. Two hull strips of
the vessel have been constructed in Singapore and
have been shipped via the Suez to the Black Sea
and then through the Russian rivers Volga and
Don to the newly established Baku Shipyard for
the final joining with the bow block and hook-up
with the accommodation block.

Subsea Construction Vessel Khankendi

Two hull strips, Bow block and LQ blocks have been
integrated on shore with the help of Trolley Transfer
System and Gantry crane. Innovative method of integration has been developed for this operation which
allows to minimize any possible gap and misalignment
between Mega Blocks.
The Vessel has been equipped by different systems that
were installed and calibrated in Baku Shipyard:
-DP3 system (it is a computer-controlled system to automatically maintain a vessels position and heading by
using its propellers and thrusters)
- Diving system with 7 chambers, two dedicated moonpools for diving bell and two HLB
- 900T SWL main offshore crane mounted on Port side
and one 50T SWL deck crane mounted on STBD side
on main deck
- ROV (a remotely operated underwater vehicle) with

3 crew boats are capable to transport personnel (up to 80 people) and various types of cargo to mobile
offshore drilling units (MODU) and other offshore oil and gas exploration and extraction facilities.
According to their specifications, they can operate at up to 100 miles from the coast.
The vessels are designed to have good seakeeping characteristics and a bow thruster was installed for
maneuverability. The hull is of mild steel and the superstructure is of aluminum alloy.

Pontoon & Upper Hull Block modules for Semi-Submersible Rig

On the 16th of September 2013, Caspian Shipyard Company (CSC) signed contract with Baku
Shipyard for undertaking fabrication of the pontoons and upper blocks for the construction of a
semisubmersible drilling rig.
The $800 million semi-submersible drilling rig
was awarded by Caspian Drilling Company (CDC)
to two subsidiaries of Keppel Offshore & Marine
Company with Caspian Rigbuilders and Caspian
Shipyard Company (CSC).
The DSS 38M rig is a Keppel design for a drilling
depth of up to 40,000 ft (12,192 m) and operations
in 1,000 m (3,280 ft) water depth. To withstand
high winds speeds in the Caspian Sea.
An 800 m (2,625 ft) self-contained eight-point
mooring system will be installed. Delivery is
scheduled for late 2016.

SHIP REPAIR

aku Shipyard has annual capacity to accept 100 different types of vessels for ship repair
activities. Floating dock, TTS ship transfer system, repair slab for more than
10 vessels, etc. are tools to realize any kind of ship repair job.
Baku Shipyard has completed works on the dock repair and upgrades of three installation vessels - the Pipe Lay Barge Israfil Huseynov, the Diving Support Vessel Tofiq Ismayilov and
the Derrick Barge Azerbaijan, within the framework of the second stage of development of a
large gas condensate field Shah Deniz in the Azerbaijani sector of the Caspian Sea.

Israfil Huseynov, one of the largest barges on

the Caspian Sea, has docking displacement equal
to 14.000 tons. Due to not evenly distributed load,
bending moment of floating dock could be reached
to the edge limit. But after successful calculations
and proper support devices distribution, the barge
was carefully docked and stayed for a month
period of repair.
Scope of work:
Removal the safety net from the helicopter
platform with the dock crane

crane reach 270 t/m. Docking weight of barge equal
18.000 t. Due to big trim of the vessel docking condition imply presence of enormous quantity of water ballast. Maximum breath with equipment was approximate
38.8 m which leaving only 60 cm gap from both side till
Floating Dock. New technologies and high competence
of Docking depart realized this job without any issues.

DSV Tofiq Ismayilov

Tofiq Ismayilov, Diving Support Vessel is more

than 25 years old and it has been fully upgraded in

our shipyard for the full use of its capabilities.
Tofiq Ismayilov was docked on hydraulic trestles and
transferred to the shore for six month repairing and
upgrading job. New hydraulic trestles have capability
to create fluid bed system and thereby provide very
accurate results and avoid any bending which can be
critical for Diving Support Vessel.
