Ada Shipyard has marked the start of production for NB141, a chemical tanker ordered by New Zealand-based Seafuels, with a steel cutting ceremony. The event signaled the transition from preparation to physical construction.
The vessel will be developed to meet the operational and safety requirements associated with chemical cargo transport. Steel cutting typically precedes block fabrication, welding, assembly and subsequent yard milestones.
Upon completion, the tanker is expected to join Seafuels' fleet and support its chemical shipping operations. The ceremony formally launched the build program for the NB141 project.
