Western Marine Shipyard Ltd., through its joint venture concern Western Fishers Shipyard, built a series of specialised fishing vessels for Bangladesh’s commercial fishing industry. The 41-metre fishing vessel project includes F.V. ALLIANCE-1 and F.V. ALLIANCE-2, designed for deep-sea mid-water fishing operations.
Built to address the demanding conditions of the Bay of Bengal, these vessels demonstrate the shipyard’s experience in constructing purpose-built fishing vessels for domestic operators.
The successful delivery of F.V. ALLIANCE-1 in May 2014 marked an important milestone in the project, showcasing local shipbuilding capabilities in specialised fishing vessel construction.
