NB138 - STM Portugal Tanker 1
Ongoing block fabrication and erection works on a Portugal export tanker at Ada Shipyard.
On the NB138 - STM Portugal Tanker 1 project, CMS AS carried out hull fabrication and outfitting in line with class-society rules at ADA TERSANESİ. With an experienced engineering team and certified welders, CMS AS safeguarded dimensional accuracy and weld quality across every work item. Commercial operating economics and class requirements formed the basis of the production plan.
Scope of Work
The engineering and fabrication items undertaken:
- Block Fabrication: Fabrication of ship blocks through CNC cutting and forming of steel plate and panel-line assembly.
- Erection & Assembly: Erection of the fabricated blocks — alignment and joining on the slipway/dock and application of seam welds.
Engineering & Execution
Engineering, planning and site teams worked in coordination, synchronising the block and outfitting workflow with the shipyard’s master build schedule. The tightness and strength requirements of the cargo and tank areas were satisfied to class rules. Coordination between workshop and site teams kept the work items progressing without interruption and safely.
Standards & Quality Assurance
All fabrication processes were performed under approved procedures and class-society survey. Welding was performed to WPS/WPQR-approved procedures and verified by NDT (UT/RT and visual inspection).
As a result, a durable vessel able to sail safely in international waters was delivered. The vessel was thus delivered with a class-approved, sea-ready steel structure. The experience CMS AS has accumulated in shipbuilding and industrial steel since 1990 makes it a trusted solution partner for shipyards.
