The Amur Shipbuilding Plant open joint stock company (OAO ASZ) was established in 1936 as the primary submarine and warship manufacturer for the Pacific Fleet.
Director General, Nikolai Povzyk
At present, it is one of the leading Russian shipbuilding companies. To implement the Concept of Reform and Development of the Russian shipbuilding industry, the Amur Shipbuilding Plant has been incorporated into the United Shipbuilding Corporation as the Far Eastern Shipbuilding and Repairs Centre.
Since its establishment, the company has built more than 300 large and small vessels, including 194 vessels for the Russian Navy-in particular, 56 nuclear submarines and 41 diesel-propelled submarines. The company is switching successfully to civil production-cargo motor vessels, refrigerator ships and timber pallet ships.
The Amur Shipbuilding Plant is a versatile manufacturer equipped with the essential production means and technology-notably, a state-of-the-art shipyard, with advanced engineering, metal and pipe production units. Apart from ships, the plant's basic products include floating transport and launching docks, large sea-based industrial facilities, metal structures, oil platform modules, and oil and gas reservoirs.
Within the past few years, the company has built the Landysh floating complex for reprocessing liquid radioactive waste, as well as the substructure, the pressure maintenance unit and the energy module for the Molikpaq oil platform for the Sakhalin II project. In addition, the company has modernised the Orlan oil platform, and constructed and delivered a tug-boat and a seismic prospecting vessel to foreign clients. The building of two chemical tankers with an 18,500 tonne cargo capacity for Germany's Hanseatic Lloyd AG began in 2006.
