AMADA will launch a new channel maintenance vessel in north China

A 12m high-performance waterway maintenance vessel for Heilongjiang will be unveiled soon. Currently, the boat has been approved by the China Classification Society and is undergoing accelerated construction. Due to the fact that Heilongjiang River is located in the northeastern region of China, its water environment is relatively harsh, with a long and cold winter and a short and rainy summer. This necessitates the integration of advanced materials and technologies that ensure durability and operational reliability in such extreme conditions. In essence, the canal maintenance transport boat is confronted with a distinct array of challenges and prerequisites that call for an exceptionally sophisticated and meticulously crafted vessel. This vessel must possess the capability to execute a diverse range of tasks within a demanding and often unpredictable environment, ensuring both efficiency and safety.

AMADA’s new vessel will improve the efficiency of waterway maintenance in Heilongjiang and ensure the safety and smoothness of waterways. At the meanwhile this boat is can provide rapid transportation for various purposes, including the work commutes of waterway maintenance staffs, transportation between the boat and the shore, and emergency medical evacuations for injured or sick individuals. It offers a fast and efficient mode of transportation for these critical needs.

This design of this vessel adopts a series of advanced compound lines for the specific waters, which reduces wave resistance, mitigates the impact of waves on the riverbed, and minimizes the effects on other vessels and personnel within the channel. It is particularly suitable for high-speed navigation in shallow and narrow waterways.

The design of this utility boat is sleek and speediness. The functional compartments within the boat include: the forepeak compartment, crew rest compartment, passenger/driver cockpit, and engine room. Non-slip decks are installed on both sides of the superstructure, as well as at the bow and stern, to ensure safety.
