INTRODUCTION
1. BN is blooming day by day with its ships, bases, equipments and men.
As the naval area is not growing with the same pace, it is required to
accommodate and facilitate all aspects within the limited resources. The
ships are also needed to distribute between Chittagong and Khulna naval
area for safe berthing. Thereby, as per directives of COMKHUL, the
undersigned has been nominated to study the berthing facilities for frigate
in Mongla area.

5. Length of the jetty. After visiting the jetty area it has been
observed that a frigate having length of 110m cannot be berthed along
single pontoon in NB1 and NB2, because its total length of a single pontoon
is 60m. Even after making fast to the jetty, some extended portion of the
foxl and Q/deck of the frigate may lay outside of the jetty. NB3 is fixed with
three separate pontoons making a total 160m length for berthing. NB3 can
be suitable for berthing considering the berthing of other smaller vessels.
7. Berthing for other ships. If a frigate fixed with a jetty, there will
be problem for smaller ships like LCTs, MFVs, survey ships, S/PORAN,
S/MAKDUM etc for berthing. Even 4 OPVs cannot be kept in one pontoon.
8. Electric supplies. Shore supply, water and fuel supply points are not
adequate when all ships are alongside. More supply points with good
facilities to be required before placing the frigate.
10. Tag facilities. Presently BNT SEBAK cannot do side tow for OPVs.
It will be difficult for tug also to move a frigate when require.
