Porbandar ( The Indian View Team) : <\/strong>The Ministry of Ports, Shipping and Waterways (MoPSW) has accorded in-principle approval to two strategic maritime infrastructure projects, a Greenfield shipbuilding cluster in Porbandar district of Gujarat and a state-of-the-art ship repair facility at Vadinar in Gulf of Kutch, under the Shipbuilding Development Scheme (SbDS), marking a significant step in India’s ambition to emerge as a global shipbuilding hub.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The two projects have been granted in-principle approval under the Shipbuilding Development Scheme (SbDS), a key component of the Government of India’s strategy to strengthen indigenous shipbuilding and ship repair capabilities under the Maritime Amrit Kaal Vision 2047.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The approvals cover the establishment of Greenfield Shipbuilding Cluster on the western coast and financial assistance for the development of one of the country’s largest ship repair facilities. The Greenfield Shipbuilding Cluster will be developed through the National Shipbuilding and Heavy Industries Park\u2013Gujarat (NSHIP-Gujarat), a Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV) jointly promoted by the Ministry of Ports, Shipping and Waterways (MoPSW) and the Gujarat Maritime Board.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Spread across nearly 2,000 acres at Kuchhadi in Gujarat’s Porbandar district, the integrated maritime manufacturing cluster will comprise modern shipyards, ancillary manufacturing units, common infrastructure and capability development centres. The project is designed to build large commercial vessels with an annual production capacity of 1.2 to 1.5 million gross tonnage (GT), significantly expanding India’s domestic shipbuilding capacity while positioning Gujarat as a major hub for heavy-tonnage vessel construction.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
