TUG BOAT
A tugboat is a specialized vessel designed to tow large ships or offshore structures and to provide precise maneuvering support within confined waters such as ports and harbors. With powerful propulsion and exceptional maneuverability, tugboats perform a wide range of maritime operations, including berthing and unberthing assistance, towing, rescue missions, and firefighting.

One-Stop Production Process from Cutting to Launching
Cutting Certified steel is shot-blasted, shop-primed, and processed.
Assembly Small parts and sections are fitted into sub-assemblies and large blocks forming the vessel’s structure.
Pre-Outfitting Major equipment is installed during block assembly to improve quality and productivity.
Painting Surfaces are treated and coated, followed by sufficient drying to ensure safe subsequent work.
Erection Painted blocks—each weighing thousands of tons—are precisely assembled to form the hull.
Launching Completed blocks are transported to the quay and launched using marine lifting equipment.
