10. National Steel and Shipbuilding Company

National Steel and Shipbuilding Company (NASSCO), the
largest shipbuilder on the West Coast, participates in both the
commercial and the U.S. Navy shipbuilding, conversion, and repair
markets. In the marine business since 1945, the company now
occupies 59 hectares (145 acres) on the harbor in San Diego,
California. In 1989, NASSCO became an employee-owned company.

In the past, NASSCO has constructed OBO carriers, very
large crude carriers (VLCC) up to 209,000 dwt, product carriers,
destroyer tenders, a large cable repair ship, special purpose
ships and a variety of Navy vessels. NASSCO conversion projects
have included the conversion of two 90,000 dwt tankers to
1,000-bed hospital ships (T-AH), three containerships to Maritime
Prepositioning Ships (T-AKX), and the reconstruction of three
former Sea-Land SL-7 containerships to Fast Sealift Ships (T-AKR)
for the Navy. Repair and overhaul work during the past few years
consisted principally of Navy contracts.

NASSCO has contracts to design and construct three AOE
class Fast Combat Support Ships for the Navy. In January 1990,
NASSCO was awarded a commercial contract to build a containership
for the Matson Navigation Company. NASSCO recently completed
major repairs of the VLCC, the EXXON VALDEZ. As of October 1,
1991, NASSCO was performing overhaul and repair work on three
Navy vessels.

NASSCO’s facilities include a building dock in which ships
up to 299 meters by 52 meters (980 ft by 170 ft) can be
constructed. In addition, the company operates three inclined
building ways. Two of these can accommodate a maximum size ship
of 274 meters by 34 meters (900 ft by 110 ft) and one a ship size
of 210 meters by 27 meters (690 ft by 90 ft). Cranes are
available that can provide lifts up to 159 metric tons. Berthing
is available at 10 full-service berths that can accommodate ships
with drafts up to 11 meters (35 ft) and lengths up to 305 meters
(1,000 ft). NASSCO also operates a 25,400 metric ton floating
drydock.

NASSCO has a full-service machine shop, carpenter shop,
sheet metal shop and pipe shop with an automated pipe silo. The
company’s steel fabrication and assembly facilities, with a
capacity of 1,816 metric tons per week, includes seven burning
machines: one has a plasma arc and two have computer numerical
control. Steel assembly facilities include a modern 16 meters
(52 ft) panel line, eight assembly tables with a combined area of
11,472 square meters (123,500 sq. ft), a turning jig for curved
steel blocks, and an enhanced pin jig area with two bridge
cranes. There is also an automated line for blasting and priming
steel plates and shapes. NASSCO offers full-service marine
engineering and naval architecture, utilizing the latest
technology such as Computer-Graphics Augmented Drafting and
Manufacturing System (CADAM).

As of mid-1991 the total labor force was 3,931, down
slightly from 3,950 in mid-1990.

5. Fraser Shipyards, Incorporated

The Fraser Yard, the only major American shipyard and
drydock operation on the western end of the Great Lakes, is
located on Howards Bay in Superior, Wisconsin. Since it was
founded in the 1890's by Capt. Alexander McDougall, who built 42
of his famous "whaleback" steamers and barges there, this plant
has had a succession of owners. From 1900 to 1926, Superior
Shipbuilding Company operated the yard and built more than 50
large Great Lakes ore carriers. The yard became a repair
facility of the American Ship Building Company from 1926 to 1945
and then became known as Knudsen Brothers Shipbuilding and Dry
Dock Company. Fraser-Nelson Shipbuilding and Dry Dock Company
took over the plant in 1955, and the present name was adopted in
1964. In August 1977, the yard was sold to Reuben Johnson & Son,
Incorporated, a Superior, Wisconsin, contracting and construction
firm, but business continues under the Fraser name.

Since World War II, Fraser Shipyards, a complete
shipbuilding and ship repair facility, has specialized in vessel
repair and ship modernization. In the past 20 years, Fraser has
performed most of the major ship lengthening work on the Great
Lakes. At this shipyard, general ship repair also has been an
important source of revenue.

In the early-1980’s, the Fraser yard instituted a major
renovation of its fabrication capabilities, including a 40
percent increase in its platen table capacity and extension of
its railroad trackage to increase steel unloading capabilities by
300 percent. An all-new steel cutting process with hydraulic
loading and unloading tables was installed, as well as major
repowering of the shipyard to support the expanding facilities
and to improve existing capacity. New automated welding
equipment and related modern techniques also were introduced to
increase productivity. In 1990 Fraser installed a new brake, as
well as a new shear.

Fraser maintains two graving docks suitable for ship
construction, repair, and conversion work. One basin can
accommodate a vessel 251 meters by 25 meters (825 ft by 82 ft),
and the other a vessel 189 meters by 19 meters (620 ft by 61 ft).
A small graving-type dock was added in 1973 to build new midbody
sections for the lengthening of bulk-ore freighters under
contract at that time. Pierside berthing totals 1,356 meters
(4,450 ft).

Fraser's 10 mobile cranes, ranging from 14 to 136 metric
tons can service all building docks, as well as outfitting and
repair berths, and also can be floated on a crane lighter for
work afloat. The company also operates an "outside" repair fleet
totaling 12 units -- tugs, work launches, and barges -- capable
of performing repairs on vessels while they are loading or
unloading cargoes in Duluth-Superior harbor and adjacent ports.

In mid-1991, employment was about 160 people.

17. Trinity Industries, Inc. - Beaumont yard

This shipyard, located on the Neches River in Beaumont,
Texas, was established in 1917 by Beaumont Shipbuilding and
Drydock Company, which built Cl-A cargo ships and Navy
minesweepers during World War II. In 1947, the yard was acquired
by Bethlehem Steel Corporation, which pioneered the design and
production of mobile offshore drilling rigs, drill ships,
offshore oil and gas facilities and barges. After closure in
mid-1988, the yard was acquired and reopened in mid-1989 by
Trinity Industries, Inc., of Dallas, Texas.

Trinity’s Beaumont yard is highly mechanized. In the
early 1970s, a multimillion-dollar panel line and material
handling facilities were installed. In recent years, capital
improvements included installation of a CNC plasma burning
machine, larger plate bending rolls, larger overhead bridge
cranes, pipe burning and bending equipment, a pipe fabrication
shop, improved welding equipment, mobile cranes, and improved
building platens.

Trinity-Beaumont has one side-launching way that can
accommodate ships up to approximately 267 meters by 32 meters
(875 ft by 105 ft). Also, the yard has recently acquired under
lease a floating drydock (AFDM-2) from the Navy. This drydock,
which can accommodate a vessel up to 198 meters (650 ft) in
length with a beam of 29 meters (95 ft), is expected to be in
operation by December 1991.

There are 1,402 meters (4,600 ft) of fully-serviced piers
and wharves and mobile equipment for servicing ships or other
vessels at pierside or anchorage. With a 508 metric ton (500
ton) lift capacity, the company’s barge-mounted "Big Bessie" is
the largest floating derrick between Houston and New Orleans.

Employment at Trinity’s Beaumont facility at mid-1991 was
95 personnel. While awaiting a major marine construction
contract, Trinity is utilizing the yard’s flexibility by
repairing and servicing railcars, building LPG tank barges and
both inland and ocean hopper barges.

15. Tampa Shipyards, Incorporated

Founded in 1948, Tampa Shipyards, Inc., (formerly Tampa
Ship Repair and Drydock Co.) is a full-service yard which was
purchased by The American Ship Building Company in 1972 and is
located on the recently deepened 13-meter (43 ft) Sparkman
Channel in Tampa, Florida.

During World War II, the company built Navy auxiliary
vessels and C2 cargo ships for the Maritime Commission. Since
World War II, Tampa Ship has been a major Gulf Coast repair yard.
During the 1980’s significant projects completed by Tampa Ship
included the conversion of four Moore-McCormack C4 cargo ships to
larger self-sustaining breakbulk/container vessels and the
construction of five 30,000 dwt clean-product, ice-strengthened
tankers for charter to the Military Sealift Command.

During 1989, Tampa Shipyards completed the conversion of
two freighters to auxiliary crane ships, T-ACS 7 and 8, for the
U.S. Navy. Work is currently underway on the completion of two
T-AO fleet oilers, BENJAMIN ISHERWOOD and HENRY ECKFORD, which
were originally contracted to Pennsylvania Shipbuilding Company
in 1985.

Major facility installations were integrated into Tampa’s
ship construction program in 1984. The additions include: a
concrete pier, two graving docks, two wet berths, additional
shops, and an erection/assembly building. The erection/assembly
building is 183 meters by 44 meters by 35 meters (600 ft by 145
ft by 115 ft), and is serviced by three overhead bridge cranes
with a combined lifting capacity of 800 metric tons. About 107
meters (350 ft) of this building straddles one of the graving
docks, allowing pre-assembled units weighing in excess of 608
metric tons to be erected in a totally enclosed environment. The
company currently has four graving docks operational. The
largest can handle ships up to 273 meters by 45 meters (896 ft by
146 ft). Two of the drydocks can accommodate a vessel as large
as 226 meters by 32 meters (742 ft by 106 ft).

To provide additional fabricating capability, Tampa Ship
has purchased the Westinghouse heavy steel fabricating facility
on Tampa’s Westshore Blvd. This facility provides over 4
hectares (11 acres) of covered fabrication floor, bridge cranes
up to 635-metric ton capacity, and barge loading facilities. The
building is two hours by tow from Tampa Ship. This heavy steel
fabricating facility is now referred to as the Westshore
Facility. In addition, Tampa Ship currently leases two wet
berths north of the main yard at South Slip. These wet berths
are 256 meters (840 ft) and 213 meters (700 ft) long.

As of mid-1991, 1,142 people were on the Tampa payroll
compared to 830 in mid-1990.

ACTIVE SHIPBUILDING BASE

The Active Shipbuilding Base, as identified by the Navy and
MARAD, is comprised of 16 privately owned U.S. shipyards which
are open and currently engaged in or seeking contracts for the
construction of major oceangoing or Great Lakes ships 1,000 gross
tons or over. Exhibit 21 of this report identifies and
geographically locates these 16 yards.

During 1991, the number of yards in the Active Shipbuilding
Base remained unchanged. As of October 1991, these 16 yards
employed roughly 73 percent of the U.S. shipbuilding and repair
industry’s total work force, as reported by the Bureau of Labor
Statistics under SIC 3731. At that same time, 94 percent of the
production workers in these 16 shipyards were engaged in Navy or
Coast Guard ship construction and repair work.

As of year end, 8 of the 16 shipyards were engaged in
construction and/or conversion of major combatant and auxiliary
ships for the Navy. Two of the yards were engaged primarily in
ship construction work provided by the Navy’s T-Ship program.
Eight of the yards had only repair and overhaul work, smaller
Navy vessel orders, and non-ship construction work.

Employment projections for production workers is shown
by Exhibit 22 of this report. These data are generated by
overlaying Navy projected six-year shipbuilding and conversion
programs onto the estimated work force required to complete the

MAJOR U.S. SHIPBUILDING, REPAIR (WITH
DRYDOCKING), AND TOPSIDE REPAIR FACILITIES

CLASSIFICATION DEFINITIONS

- Shipbuilding: Facilities that are open, having at least one
shipbuilding position, either an inclined way, a
side-launching platform, or a building basin capable of
accommodating a minimum ship size of 400’ in length. With
few exceptions, these shipbuilding facilities are also major
repair facilities with drydocking capability.

- Repair (With Drydocking): Drydocking facilities for ships
400’ in length and over. These facilities may also be

capable of constructing vessels less than 400’ in length.

- Topside Repair: Facilities with sufficient berth/pier space
for topside repair of ships 400’ in length and over. These
facilities may also be capable of constructing and/or
drydocking vessels less than 400’ in length.

GENERAL REQUIREMENTS

The shipyard must own or have in place a long-term lease (1 year
or more) on the facility in which they intend to accomplish the
work.

There must be no dimensional obstructions in the waterway leading
to open ocean (i.e., locks, bridges).

Water depth in the channel to the facility must be a minimum of
12 feet.

NOTE

The following criteria were developed to establish the maximum
ship size that could be accommodated in each drydock:

For floating drydocks, the maximum ship length is as given
by the shipyards. The maximum beam was determined by
allowing a two-foot (.6 m) clearance at each side between
the ship and wing wall.

For graving docks, the maximum ship length was determined by
allowing a two-foot (.6 m) clearance at each end between the
ship and the inside of the dock at the floor. The maximum
beam was determined by allowing a two-foot (.6 m) clearance
on each side between the ship and each side of the dock
entrance at the sill, unless the shipyard indicated more
clearance is required.

There are several types of floating drydocks and graving docks,
and under certain circumstances additional clearance would be
necessary between the ship and the dock body. Permissible ship
sizes requiring additional clearance may be determined by simple
calculation from the above criteria.

NAVY'S T-SHIP PROGRAM

An important segment of ship construction and conversion activity
for U.S. shipyards has been the Navy’s T-ship program. T-ships
are auxiliary vessels funded by the Navy budget but designed to
be civilian-manned and under the control of the Military Sealift
Command. Since mid-1979, 16 U.S. private shipyards have been
awarded contracts for the construction of 54 new ships and the
conversion of 31 existing vessels. The initial contract value
for these vessels totaled almost $5.4 billion.

During 1991, two T-ship contracts were placed with U.S.
shipyards. Halter Marine, Inc., Moss Point, Mississippi received
an order with an initial contract value of $92.8 million to build
two ocean survey ships (T-AGS 60 and T-AGS 61). Tampa Shipyards,
Inc., Tampa, Florida won a contract to build T-AGOS 23, the lead
ship of the ocean surveillance ship (SURTASS) design.

Deliveries included a SWATH class ocean surveillance ship (T-AGOS
19) by McDermott Shipyards, Morgan City, Louisiana; two fleet
oilers (T-AO 194 and T-AO 196) by Avondale Industries, New
Orleans, Louisiana; and a coastal hydrographic survey ship (T-AGS
51) by Halter Marine, Inc., Moss Point, Mississippi.

As of January 1, 1992, 17 new ships were either under
construction or on order at four shipyards (Exhibit 27). The
value of this orderbook is approximately $1.3 billion.

AVERAGE EARNINGS IN U.S. PRIVATE SHIPYARDS

Average hourly earnings in the U.S. private shipyards are
presented on a "gross" basis, reflecting not only changes in
basic hourly and incentive wage rates, but also such variable
factors as premium pay for overtime and late-shift work, as well
as changes in output for workers paid on an incentive plan.
Averages of hourly earnings differ from wage rates. Earnings are
the actual return to the workers for a stated period of time;
rates are the amount stipulated for a given unit or work or time.
Gross average weekly earnings are derived by multiplying average
weekly hours by average hourly earnings. Therefore, weekly
earnings are affected not only by changes in gross average hourly
earnings, but also by changes in the length of the workweek.

The annual average earnings of the private shipyards in the
United States from 1982 through the first ten months of 1991 show
an increase from $10.21 to an average of $12.18 (Exhibit 31).
During the same period, the average weekly earnings rose from
$408.35 to $501.37.

2. Avondale Industries, Inc. ~ Avondale Shipyards Division

_ Avondale Shipyards Division is located on the west bank of
the Mississippi River approximately six kilometers (nine miles)
upriver from New Orleans, Louisiana. Avondale, previously a
wholly-owned subsidiary of Odgen Corporation, was sold in 1985 to
its employees in an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP). Since
1938, Avondale has constructed a full range of Navy and
commercial ships, as well as Coast Guard cutters and offshore
drilling rigs; and it has the distinction of being the only
American shipyard to have constructed LASH vessels.

Avondale also maintains an active repair operation for
commercial and naval ships. Inland waterway and offshore oil
vessels are repaired by Avondale’s Westwego and Harvey Divisions.
Offshore platforms, jackets, and production modules are
constructed by Avondale’s main plant.

Avondale’s new construction orderbook as of October 1,
1991, consisted of one oceanographic survey ship (T-AGS 45),
eight fleet oilers (T-AO’s) and four dock landing ships (LSD’s).
In addition, Avondale has contracts for the jumboization of three
Navy fleet oilers of the AO-177 class.

Avondale’s main yard facility totals 101 hectares (250
acres) and contains three outfitting docks equipped with
supporting shops and over 1,829 meters (6,000 ft) of pier space.
Avondale’s upper yard shipbuilding area has two large positions
to accommodate vessels of up to 311 meters (1,020 ft) in length
by 53 meters (175 ft) beam. The major part of one ship can be
erected along with the stern section of a second ship on position
No. 1, while a third hull is being completed on position No. 2.
Ships constructed in the upper yard move laterally in three
positions for launching by Avondale’s large floating drydock,
which can accommodate ships as large as 305 meters by 66 meters
(1,000 ft by 216 ft), with a lifting capacity of 82,296 metric
tons. Avondale’s lower yard has a side-launching construction
area that has three large positions to accommodate ships as large
as 366 meters by 38 meters (1,200 ft by 126 ft). Ships built in
the lower yard move laterally toward the river and parallel to
the river in five positions. Up to five large vessels, greater
than 213 meters (700 ft) LOA, can be constructed simultaneously
in the lower yard. A Panamax floating drydock is moored in this
area, which can accommodate ships up to 229 meters by 34 meters
(750 ft by 110 ft), and has a lifting capacity of 20,320 metric
tons.

Avondale’s nearby Westwego, Louisiana, facility is capable
of building vessels 137 meters (450 ft) long by 27 meters (90 ft)
beam. In 1988, Avondale long-term leased the ex-Todd
Shipbuilding Corporation’s New Orleans yard which is now called
the Avondale Algiers Repair and Overhaul Facility and is used for
ship repair, conversion, and overhaul.

In mid-1991, the total employment was about 7,300.

CAPITAL INVESTMENT

During FY 1991, the U.S. ship construction and ship repair
industry invested more than $228 million in the upgrade and
expansion of facilities (Exhibit 29). Much of this investment was
to improve efficiency and competitiveness in the Navy's
construction, repair and overhaul projects, which are considered
the most consistent and stable element in the industry’s
projected market.

In 1992, the industry plans to spend about $129 million in the
upgrade and expansion of facilities, according to data received
by the Maritime Administration. The industry’s capital
investments since 1970 have totaled $4.8 billion, and actual
expenditures between 1985 and 1991, with the exception of 1990,
have consistently exceeded those planned.

These capital investments have included building basins, floating
drydocks, cranes, automated equipment, and highly mechanized
modular techniques - fabrication of large subassemblies and pre-
outfitting of ship components.

4. BethShip Sparrows Point Yard

The BethShip Sparrows Point Yard is located on the
Patapsco River in the port of Baltimore, Maryland. Established
in 1891, the yard became a part of the Bethlehem organization in
1916 and served as a major shipbuilder during two world wars.
During World War II, Sparrows Point constructed 101 vessels of 16
different classes. During the 1950’s, 1960’s and 1970's, the
yard was among the most active in the nation, specializing in
series construction of standard size tankers up to VLCCs,
freighters, and containerships.

Since the beginning of 1981, the yard has constructed six
Integrated Tug Barge (ITB) tankers, six offshore drilling rigs,
two container feeder barges, and two oceanographic survey ships
for the U.S. Navy. During this same period, the yard has adapted
to changing markets by increased efforts in ship conversion and
repair and industrial fabrication. In addition to numerous
drydockings and repairs on commercial and Naval ships, three
RO/ROs have been converted to Maritime Prepositioning Ships, five
RO/ROs have been reflagged, and tunnel sections for a new
Interstate 664 Hampton Roads Tunnel Complex have been completed.
The yard is currently working on tunnel sections for the new
Interstate 90 project in Boston.

The major component of this shipyard is the building basin
(the second largest in the U.S.) for construction or repair of
ships as large as 365 meters by 59 meters (1,196 ft by 194 ft) up
to about 300,000 dwt. A two-position intermediate gate has been
installed to increase the flexibility of the basin by dividing it
into two sections. In one position the basin’s sections are 274
meters and 91 meters (900 ft and 300 ft) in length. In the
second position, the sections are 209 meters and 157 meters (685
ft and 515 ft) in length.

Complementing the large construction basin, which is
served by four 181-metric ton revolving cranes, the shipyard
maintains two building ways. Each way can accommodate a maximum
ship size of 244 meters by 32 meters (800 ft by 106 ft). Four
outfitting berths are available with a combined length of 1,210
meters (3,969 ft). The berths are served by five revolving
cranes with lifting capacities up to 45 metric tons. Several
mobile cranes of various capacities are also available.

BethShip Sparrows Point Yard also has a floating drydock
capable of lifting 44,735 metric tons. The drydock can
accommodate vessels up to 274 meters (900 ft) in length with a
beam of up to 41 meters (136 ft) and a draft up to 9 meters (30
ft). The entry channel to the yard has a depth of 9 meters (30
ft).

The total labor force at the BethShip Sparrows Point Yard
was 539 at mid-1991, down from 1,330 a year earlier.

PROJECTED NAVY SHIPBUILDING PLAN

The U.S. Navy shipbuilding plan for fiscal years 1992 - 1997
includes the construction of 58 new ships, as illustrated in
Exhibit 28. More than $50 billion is proposed for this plan.
Shipyard contract value, however, corresponds to only about a
third of this amount. The remainder is attributed to such items
as Government-furnished equipment placed aboard the vessels and
to other Government program costs.

The Navy’s proposed FY 1992 - 1997 shipbuilding program
represents a significant reduction in the amount of new
shipbuilding work available to the nation’s industrial base when
compared with previous Navy programs. At an average of less than
10 ships per year, this program represents almost a 50 percent
reduction in the quantity of ships to be procured compared with
the 19 ships per year average for Navy programs during the 1980s.

The Navy’s plan includes the construction of 1 nuclear aircraft
carrier (CVN) , 7 nuclear attack submarines (SSN 21) and 22
guided missile destroyers (DDG-51). These three shipbuilding
programs would probably consume approximately 80 percent of the
available funding.

Introduction

In compliance with the Merchant Marine Act of 1936, as
amended, 1/ the Maritime Administration (MARAD) conducts an
annual survey to obtain information from the shipbuilding and
ship repair industry to be used primarily to determine if an
adequate mobilization base exists for national defense and for
use in a national emergency. This report on the 1991 survey of
U.S. shipyard facilities was prepared by the Division of
Production, Office of Ship Construction, and is for general use
within the Maritime Administration and other Government agencies.

1/ Section 210

"It shall be the duty of the Secretary of Transportation to
make a survey of the American merchant marine, as it now exists,
to determine what additions and replacements are required to
carry forward the national policy declared in Section 101 of the
Act, and the Secretary of Transportation is directed to study,
perfect, and adopt a long-range program for replacements and
additions to the American merchant marine so that as soon as
practicable the following objectives may be accomplished:
...Fourth, the creation and maintenance of efficient shipyards
and repair capacity in the United States with adequate numbers of
skilled personnel to provide an adequate mobilization base."

Section 211

“The Secretary of Transportation is authorized and directed
to investigate, determine, and keep current records of ... (g)
The number, location, and efficiency of the shipyards existing on
the date of enactment of this Act or thereafter built in the
United States."

Section 502(f)

"The Secretary of Transportation with the advice of and in
coordination with the Secretary of the Navy, shall, at least once
a year, as required for purposes of the Act, survey the existing
privately-owned shipyards capable of merchant ship construction,
or review available data on such shipyards if deemed adequate, to
determine whether their capabilities for merchant ship
construction, including facilities and skilled personnel, provide
an adequate mobilization base at strategic points for purposes of
national defense and national emergency."

11. Newport News Shipbuilding

Newport News Shipbuilding, located at the Port of Hampton
Roads in Newport News, Virginia, is the largest shipbuilding
complex in the United States. The company, founded in 1886, isa
subsidiary of Tenneco, Inc. Newport News has built 25 aircraft
carriers, 42 nuclear-powered submarines, and over 120 other
surface ships for the U.S. Navy. Commercial vessels delivered by
the yard include 71 cargo ships, 85 tankers, 61 passenger ships
(most notably the famed superliner UNITED STATES), and more than
50 other self-propelled vessels. Newport News was a pioneer in
the field of jumboizing ships, and since 1957 has completed 34
such operations. The last commercial vessel built in the yard
was delivered in September 1983.

Newport News is the Nation’s foremost builder of Navy
nuclear warships. As of October 1, 1991, the yard was at work on
three Nimitz class aircraft carriers and 9 attack submarines.
Overhaul and repair of nuclear-powered submarines and surface
ships for the Navy are also a principal activity at Newport News.

Included in Newport News major facilities are:

Docks and Shipways - There are eight separate docking facilities.
Shipway 12, the largest building basin in the nation, is 492
meters (1,613 ft) long, 76 meters (250 ft) wide, and 10 meters
(33 ft) deep. Three positions for the intermediate gate expand
the multi-ship construction capability of this dock, permitting
simultaneous ship construction and repair. A 900 metric ton
gantry crane, one of the largest in the world, can handle
completely outfitted assemblies. This crane has a height of 71
meters (234 ft) overall, a girder clearance of 61 meters (200 ft)
and a span between rail centers of 165 meters (540 ft). Shipways
10 and 11 are used for construction work, as well as overhaul and
repair, and are serviced by a 315 metric ton gantry crane. The
other four graving docks (Dry Docks 1-4) are used mainly for ship
repair and overhaul work. The floating drydock, which is 195
meters by 43 meters (640 ft by 140 ft), is primarily used as a
part of the submarine land level facility.

Vessel Berthing - Newport News has two outfitting berths totaling
799 meters (2,620 ft) each serviced by 30 metric ton cranes.
There are six piers totaling 3,353 meters (11,000 ft) serviced by
cranes with capacities of up to 45 metric tons in addition to the
two small piers included with the submarine land level facility.

Submarine Construction and Repair Complex - This land level
facility is currently being used for construction of nuclear

attack submarines. It includes a modular outfitting facility
(MOF), outboard ways, two small piers, a transporter and transfer
system, and a floating drydock.

The labor force at Newport News in mid-1991 was about
27,000, compared to 26,000 a year earlier.

16. Todd Pacific Shipyards Corporation - Seattle Division

Todd’s Seattle Division is located at the northwest corner
of Harbor Island in Elliot Bay, less than 10 minutes from
downtown Seattle, Washington. From 1898 until 1916, when the
William H. Todd Company of New York bought the shipyard from the
Seattle Construction and Drydock Company, a variety of vessels
were produced, including the world’s finest six-masted barkentine
and (at that time) the world’s fastest single-screw steamer.

This 21-hectares (52 acre) yard has been a prime supplier of
fighting ships for the Navy. During World War II, Todd-Seattle
constructed over 125 ships and repaired and serviced some 2,700
deep draft vessels of all sizes, types, and flags. Since 1952,
the yard has built 80 vessels of 20 different types.

As of October 1, 1991, work in the yard included the
modernization of eight Hamilton class Coast Guard cutters with
the last scheduled for redelivery in April 1992. ‘This yard has
an active ship repair and overhaul operation that annually works
on a large number of commercial and naval vessels.

The largest building way at Todd-Seattle can handle a ship
up to 183 meters by 29 meters (600 ft by 96 ft). It can also be
used as a dual launchway for simultaneous construction of two
ships with beams of 15 meters (50 ft) or less. A small side-
launch building way is also available. In addition to the 40,640
metric ton (40,000 long ton) drydock, there are two other
floating drydocks, the larger of which can accommodate ships up
to 287 meters by 41 meters (943 ft by 133 ft).

In July 1982, the company transferred a 40,640 metric ton
(40,000 long ton) floating drydock from its San Francisco
Division to Seattle. A new 137 metric ton traveling whirley
crane on the adjacent 305-meter (1,000 ft) concrete pier serves
the floating drydock and the adjacent berths. A second pier was
rebuilt in concrete and lengthened to give the yard a 427 meter
(1,400 ft) berth with a 12 meter (40 ft) water depth.

Two wharves and five piers provide a total of 1,834 meters
(6,017 ft) of berthing space for outfitting and repair. The yard
is serviced by 15 whirley traveling cranes, with lifting
capacities ranging from 23 metric tons to 136 metric tons.

In mid-1991, total employment at the Seattle plant was
1,278, down from 2,552 at mid-1990.

TOTAL EMPLOYMENT IN PRIVATE SHIPYARDS

ee SE ERIVATE SHIPYARDS

According to preliminary employment data published by the Bureau
of Labor Statistics (BLS), U.S. Department of Labor, under the
Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) Code 3731 (Shipbuilding
and Repairing), the average total employment in U.S. private
shipyards for the first ten months of 1991 was 127,200 (Exhibit
30). This total reflects a decline of 1.5 percent from the
reported total average employment for the shipbuilding and
repairing industry for 1990.

According to the data published by the BLS, total average
employment in the shipbuilding and repairing industry had been
increasing slightly since 1988, but has remained considerably
lower than that reported in 1982 when 171,600 people were
employed in the industry.

9. Merce Industries, Inc.

In January 1985, the Toledo-Lucas County Port Authority
purchased this shipyard from The American Ship Building Company
which owned the yard since 1947 and closed it in 1982. In
September 1985, the yard was re-opened when Merce Industries,
Inc., a 25-year old topside repair firm, entered into an
agreement with the Port Authority to operate the shipyard for 25
years. Merce Industries, Inc. (Toledo Shipyard), is a complete,
full-service shipyard, equipped for new construction, conversion
and repair, including propeller repair.

Since Merce Industries, Inc., began operating the yard,
they have made extensive repairs and have upgraded and renovated
the facility, including the leveling of the old fit-out building
adjacent to one of the drydocks, which improved access to the
pier area between the graving docks and the wet slip area. Merce
Industries elected not to lease the buildings immediately
adjacent to the yard as the firm had existing facilities that
were superior and in the nearby area. These existing facilities
include a 4,645 square meter fabricating/propeller repair
facility and a 1115 square meter machining and pressure vessel
shop.

Complete facilities for propeller repair services in all
alloys is available through the American Propeller Division.

The company maintains two graving docks. One can
accommodate vessels up to 207 meters by 24 meters (680 ft by 78
ft), and the other, vessels as large as 165 meters by 21 meters
(540 £t by 68 ft). Usable berthing space totals about 488 meters
(1,600 ft).

On December 17, 1986, Toledo Shipyard filed for protection
under Chapter 11 of the U.S. bankruptcy code. In June 1988, the
court approved a reorganization plan allowing a five-year
repayment period.

As of mid-1991, employment at the shipyard totaled 60.
Employment increases during the winter months as repair activity
on the Great Lakes increases.

The Manitowoc Company, Inc., as of December 30, 1991, had
acquired the assets of Merce Industries, Inc. In the future
Merce Industries, same as Bay Shipbuilding, another component of
Manitowoc, will not be involved in new construction, but will
concentrate on repair and conversions in the marine industry.

13. Portland Ship Repair Yard

The Portland Ship Repair Yard is part of the Municipal
Corporation of the Port of Portland. The 57-hectare (140 acre)
shipbuilding and ship repair facility is located in Portland,
Oregon, on the Willamette River. The yard was developed from the
World War II Swan Island Shipbuilding facilities which delivered
1,076 oceangoing ships.

During 1990, projects undertaken by contracted users of
the yard included the reduction in deadweight capacity of an oil
tanker from 165,000 tons to 125,000 tons by removing a 17-meter
(55 ft) section of the ship and construction and load-out of $75
million worth of gas handling modules for the North Slope oil
fields.

The shipbuilding assets are augmented by the individual
facility users’ assets. Cascade General, Inc., Northwest Marine
Inc., and West State, Inc., are contracted users of the facility.

The shipbuilding facilities at the Portland Ship Repair
Yard are capable of producing modular-type units from 1,525 to
5,084 metric tons. Units are transported by rubber-tired
vehicles, crawler or walker, via a launching bridge to two
locations. At one ship construction location, a vessel 145
meters by 30 meters (475 ft by 100 ft) can be constructed using
the No. 3 drydock for launching. At the other location, a vessel
up to 247 meters by 33 meters (810 ft by 108 ft) can be
constructed using the No. 3 and No. 4 drydocks for launching.

Portland Ship Repair Yard operates three drydocks. The
largest two (No. 3 and No. 4) can accommodate vessels up to 247
meters by 33 meters (810 ft by 108 ft), and 351 meters by 55
meters (1,150 ft by 181 ft), respectively. A total of 3,078
meters (10,100 ft) of fully serviced pier space with 16 whirley
type cranes are employed for outfitting. In 1986, a new layberth
facility (Berth 315) was added which can accommodate two 335-
meter (1,100-foot) VLCCs in lay-up status.

The yard has 46,447 square meters (500,000 sq. ft) of
fully-enclosed service shops and warehouse space. The 11 module
assembly bays are 98 meters (323 ft) long, 21 meters (70 £t) wide
(clear), and 18 meters (60 ft) high (clear).

The Portland Ship Repair Yard is preparing to expand its
modular construction capability by an additional 14 hectares (34
acres), located in the Swan Island Basin. This facility will be
suitable for constructing ship modules.

As of mid-1991 the shipyard employed 3,135 persons,
unchanged from mid-1990.

1. Alabama Shipyard, Inc.

Alabama Shipyard, Inc., is a wholly-owned subsidiary of
Atlantic Marine Holding Company of Jacksonville, Florida.
Alabama Shipyard, Inc., (formerly ADDSCO’s Alabama Maritime
Corporation), is a new construction facility specializing in both
marine and industrial fabrication. The shipyard is located on
the Mobile River, across the river from Mobile, Alabama, about 30
miles from the Gulf of Mexico. Acquired by Atlantic Marine in
1989, the yard has been in existence since 1916 and has
constructed a variety of ships (both commercial and naval),
barges and drill ships.

As of October 1, 1991, work underway at Alabama Shipyard
included construction of one floating steam boiler barge and six
crane barges for the U.S. Navy.

Alabama Shipyard, Inc., is capable of constructing ships
up to a maximum size of 213 meters by 27 meters (700 ft by 90
ft). The shipyard has 12,076 square meters (130,000 sq. ft) of
manufacturing space, 7,432 square meters (80,000 sq. ft) of
covered warehouse space, two finger piers with total usable pier
space of 1,219 meters (4,000 ft), and a 250-metric ton bridge
crane. The yard utilizes a 213-meter (700 ft) transfer launching
system. Various other gantry cranes, as well as a plate shop and
a carpenter shop, are available for construction. The yard also
has access to a twin-boom luffing derrick capable of handling
1,400 metric tons, which can be used for lifting heavy offshore
structures.

As of mid-1991, Alabama Shipyard’s employment totaled 239,
up from 191 a year earlier.

7. Ingalls Shipbuilding, Inc.

The Ingalls Shipbuilding, Inc., a division of Litton
Industries, Inc., is located on the Gulf of Mexico in Pascagoula,
Mississippi. Ingalls is a diversified shipbuilding facility
experienced in the construction, modernization, conversion, and
overhaul of Navy warships and auxiliaries. Since 1975, Ingalls
has designed, built and delivered to the Navy 55 major surface
combatant ships.

As of October 1, 1991, the company held orders for five
Aegis cruisers -- the last of which is scheduled for delivery in
1994. Other ships under contract were three Ingalls-designed
multi-purpose amphibious assault ships (LHDs) for the Navy, as
well as eight new DDG-51 class guided missile destroyers. In
addition, Ingalls has a regular workload of Navy overhauls and
repairs. The Ingalls backlog also includes three SA’AR corvettes
for the Government of Israel.

Ingalls 243 hectare (600 acre) West Bank facility,
completed in 1970, does not have conventional inclined
shipbuilding ways but is geared to assembly-line construction.
Fabricated steel and subassemblies are brought from the various
shops to the subassembly area where they are erected and pre-
outfitted, then moved to the module assembly area. These areas
are divided into five bays, each of which can produce 5,447
metric ton modules. After assembly and outfitting, the modules
are moved to the integration area where they are erected into a
complete ship. The ship is then moved to a floating drydock
(resting on a submerged grid) which is subsequently floated and
moved to a deep-water area where it is ballasted and the ship
launched. The drydock can launch or recover a maximum ship size
of 259 meters by 53 meters (850 ft by 173 ft). Approximately
1,432 meters (4,700 ft) of berthing space, serviced by cranes up
to 272 metric tons, are available for outfitting. In August
1988, about 16,721 square meters (180,000 sq. ft) of the
shipyard’s slab area were brought under roof to increase the
amount of early outfitting performed. Improved pipe production
facilities, a machinery packaging facility, and a new blast and
paint station in the steel fabrication complex have been added.

Ingalls’s older East Bank facility has been in operation
since 1938, engaged primarily in the construction of commercial
cargo ships and tankers. Although there are six inclined
shipways and a graving dock at East Bank, they were all taken out
of service in 1989. Refurbishment of these facilities is
anticipated to take at least two years. However, a wharf and
four piers provide a total of 914 meters (3,000 ft) of berthing
space serviced by cranes with up to 54 metric tons of capacity
for outfitting and topside repair.

Ingalls Shipbuilding Division of Litton Industries at

mid-1991 employed a total labor force of 15,531, up from 12,987 a
year earlier.

The statistical data accumulated by the survey are a major
input into the Shipyard Evaluation Analysis System Model (SEAS),
a quantitative assessment of the Nation’s ship construction and
ship repair capability. This capability is periodically compared
with Department of Defense scenarios involving various
contingency attrition rates and emergency civilian shipping
requirements to assess the adequacy of the shipbuilding
mobilization base, including ship repair and reactivation of the
Maritime Administration reserve fleet and the U.S. Navy reserve
fleet.

The survey also provides a data base that are used to
evaluate the feasibility of proposed shipbuilding programs.
Determinations are made as to which existing shipyards might
construct proposed ships consistent with ship size and delivery
date requirements. The need for construction of new facilities
to meet the demands of proposed shipbuilding programs can be also
identified. The data gathered by the annual survey also are used
extensively in MARAD responses to queries received from a variety
of interests, including members of Congress, the Secretary of
Transportation, the Department of Defense, the Office of
Management and Budget, and other Government agencies.

Each year in late spring, Standard Form 17, "Facilities
Available for the Construction or Repair of Ships," is mailed to
some 350 U.S. shipyards and ship repair facilities. The survey
form was developed jointly by MARAD and the Navy. A completed
Form 17 represents a detailed description of a shipbuilding or
ship repair facility, which is not available from any other
source on a continuing and structured basis. The information
requested, and available for official use, can be reviewed on a
blank Form 17 shown herein as Appendix A. A graving dock
characteristics summary and floating drydock characteristics
summary are appended to Standard Form 17 to better identify the
characteristics of the facilities.

Upon receipt of a completed Form 17 from a shipyard, MARAD
forwards a copy to the Naval Sea Systems Command, Industrial
Planning Division, which maintains records of available
facilities and capacities of various shipyards and repair plants.
This would enable the Department of Transportation and the
Department of Defense to use such facilities to the best
advantage in the event of national emergency.

The annual shipyard survey of 1991 has been completed. The
information collected has been organized and condensed in the
following narratives, exhibits, and tabulations to focus
attention on those elements that are most often requested from
this office.

12. Peterson Builders Incorporated

Peterson Builders, Inc. (PBI), of Sturgeon Ba: Wi i
established in 1933, is a privately owned. full service,
construction and repair shipyard, which serves the government,
commercial and service industries. The shipyard cffers
construction capabilities in wood, steel, fiberglass and
aluminum, as well as design and production expertise. Their
continuing backlog of ship construction, complemented by
conversion, repair, and special projects of unique assembly
fabrications, enables PBI to maintain a skilled labor force and
to keep pace with the latest technologies and developments in the
industry.

The main yard, with about 3 hectares (7 acres) of
buildings, provides inside construction and production
facilities; total area is about 5 hectares (13 acres). Extensive
waterfront facilities provide berthing for vessels up to 274
meters (900 ft) in length. PBI operates two side launching
shipways; one can accommodate a maximum ship length of 152 meters
(500 ft) and the other 69 meters (225 ft). Also, inside ship
construction capabilities for vessels up to 70 meters by 18
meters (230 ft by 60 ft) are available. PBI’s floating drydock
has the capacity to accommodate a vessel up to 110 meters by 12
meters (360 ft by 40 ft) and is Navy-certified for 1,118 metric
tons. :

Current construction contracts underway at PBI are for six
wooden 68-meter (224 ft) Mine Countermeasure Ships (MCMs) for the
U.S. Navy. As part of the Navy’s mine warfare renewal program,
these MCMs will replace ships in service since the early 1950's.
PBI has been a leader in mine craft construction since that time;
longer than any other shipyard in the world. This new generation
of wooden ships being built at PBI are not the only "first of a
kind" contracts awarded to the yard. Other "new class of ship"
construction contracts completed for the U.S. Navy are four steel
69-meter (255 ft) ARS Auxiliary Rescue/Salvage ships and seven
wooden 33-meter (108 ft) YP Yard Patrol craft. PBI also
maintains a long-standing history for commercial vessel
construction ranging from super tuna seiners, research ships,
large passenger/car ferries, and a range of tugs.

During 1991, Peterson Builders received contracts for the
overhaul and repair of a 23-meter (77 ft) Fire Boat for the city
of Detroit, a 15-meter (50 ft) EPA boat, and modifications to a
23-meter (75 ft) excursion boat. Two 55-meter (180 ft) U.S.
Coast Guard Buoy Tenders were drydocked and sea chests coated.

At mid-1991, the company’s average total employment was
about 990, compared to 1,000 in 1990.

3. Bath Iron Works Corporation

_, Bath Iron Works Corporation (BIW), a wholly-owned
subsidiary of Bath Acquisition Corporation, which is a subsidiary
of Bath Holding Corporation, is located on the Kennebec River in
Bath, Maine. The small iron foundry which was established on
this site in 1826 became Bath Iron Works, Ltd., in 1884, and the
first shipbuilding began in 1889. This yard has constructed
various type of ships including roll-on/roll-off cargo vessels,
containerships, tankers, dredges, barges, and fishing vessels.
Bath also has built 212 surface Navy combatants.

BIW was the lead shipbuilder for the Navy’s guided missile
frigate (FFG-7 class) program and was awarded contracts for the
construction of the 24 FFG-7 class frigates. In 1982, the Navy
selected BIW as its second source for the high-technology CG 47
class AEGIS cruiser program, awarding the company contracts to
build eight of these TICONDEROGA class cruisers - the last of
which is scheduled for delivery in 1992. In 1985, BIW was
selected as the lead shipbuilder for the design and construction
of the Navy’s ARLEIGH BURKE class guided missile destroyer
(DDG~51) program. Nine DDG’s have been ordered from BIW - the
last is scheduled for delivery in 1996.

BIW's facilities include two shipways to accommodate ships
of 213 meters (700 ft) in length with a maximum beam of 40 meters
(130 ft), or two ships per way with a beam of 16 meters (54 ft)
each; and a 220 metric ton level-luffing crane with sufficient
outreach to erect units on both shipways. The pre-outfit
building, opened in 1987, is 61 meters by 125 meters (200 ft by
410 ft) and has 18 work stations for 219 metric ton erection
units. BIW also added a new 220 metric ton capacity revolver
crane to serve the third shipway. The shipway can accommodate a
ship 198 meters (650 ft) in length with a beam of 27 meters (88
ft). Two wharves and a pier provide a total of 655 meters (2,150
ft).

BIW operates two support facilities in East Brunswick,
located 4.8 kilometers (3 miles) from the main plant. The 13
hectare (33 acre) Hardings fabrication plant is where the initial
steel fabrication takes place. The 24 hectare (60 acre) East
Brunswick facility is the location of the 113,000 cubic meter
consolidated warehouse which uses state of the art equipment to
accomplish the transfer, handling, and storage of shipbuilding
inventory. A new 11,148 square meter (120,000 sq. ft.) pipe and
sheet metal fabrication facility was added in 1989.

BIW operates the Portland Overhaul and Repair Facility in
Portland, Maine. This facility has a large floating drydock with
a lifting capacity of 65,000 metric tons, which can accommodate a
vessel up to 257 meters by 41 meters (844 ft by 136 ft). This
facility also supports new construction programs as the site
where sonar dome installations and Post Shakedown Availabilities
(PSA’s) are performed. A 9,500 metric ton lift drydock has
recently been used to overhaul four WHEC class Coast Guard ships.

As of mid-1991, the company employed a total of 10,805,
compared to 11,816 a year earlier.

8. Marinette Marine Corporation

Marinette Marine Corporation is a privately-owned Great
Lakes shipbuilding company founded during the early months of
World War II and located in northeast Wisconsin. During the past
49 years, the yard has built nearly 1,300 vessels, including
harbor tugs, research vessels, torpedo weapon retrievers,
minehunters and yard patrol craft.

As of Octcber 1, 1991, Marinette Marine was engaged in the
construction of an Aids-to-Navigation (ATON) Barge for the U.S.
Coast Guard. In addition, Marinette Marine held a contract for
participating in the design competition for the Coast Guard’s
Ocean-Going Buoy Tenders (WLB). Earlier in 1991, Marinette Marine
delivered two mine countermeasure vessels (MCMs) to the Navy and
an additional ATON Barge to the U.S. Coast Guard.

The shipyard covers 23 hectares (57 acres) and has over
134,146 square meters (1.44 million sq. ft) of enclosed workspace
permitting year-round, uninterrupted construction of vessels up
to 122 meters (400 ft) in length overall with a beam of up to 20
meters (65 ft). Large fabrication shops and erection areas, a
200 metric ton shiplift, three launchways, and numerous berthing
spaces along the 671 meter (2,200 ft) dockwall provide the
facilities needed to construct multiple ships in assembly line
fashion.

Marinette Marine’s module construction method is
complemented by separate cutting, fabricating, assembly, and
trade shops allowing smooth and efficient movement of material
and prefabricated components through the construction process.
Many of the shops are equipped with overhead bridge cranes of up
to 45 metric ton capacity; and multiple crawler cranes service
the outdoor erection areas. Large modules and completed vessels
are transferred and erected using a Dual Walking Beam ship
transfer system.

Total employment at the yard in mid-1991 was 218, compared
to 300 a year earlier.

COMMERCIAL SHIP CONSTRUCTION

In 1991 no new orders for the construction of commercial ships
1,000 gross tons and larger were placed with U.S. shipyards.
However, the shipbuilding orderbook remained unchanged from a
year earlier. As of January 1, 1992, three vessels were still
under construction. The orderbook from 1977 through 1992 is
illustrated in Exhibit 23.

National Steel and Shipbuilding Company (NASSCO) of San Diego, is
building a 713-foot diesel-powered containership of 32,600 gross
tons (gt) designed to carry 1,650 24-foot containers. This ship
was ordered by Matson Navigation Company in January 1990 and is
currently scheduled for delivery in June 1992.

The two other ships in the orderbook as of January 1, 1992 are
being built at Eastern Shipyards, Inc., Panama City, Florida. In
October 1990, Eastern signed a contract with Freeport-McMoran
Resource Partners to build two sulphur carriers. Each 398-foot
ship will carry 7,500 tons of liquid sulphur from Freeport-
McMoran’s mining complex in the Gulf of Mexico to Port Sulphur,
Louisiana, on the Mississippi River. The first ship is expected
to be delivered in January 1992 and the second ship in May 1992.

14, Tacoma Boatbuilding Company

In operation since 1926 in Tacoma, Washington, this
shipyard has designed, constructed, and repaired vessels for
commercial customers, the Navy and Coast Guard, and foreign
governments. Tacoma Boat’s overall facilities consist of two
yards covering over 12 hectares (30 acres) of company-owned or
leased property located adjacent to the Commencement Bay
industrial complex.

Tacoma Boat has grown continuously through the years,
producing a diversified construction pattern including a variety
of standard-class tuna purseiners, a semi-submersible offshore
oil-drilling rig, barges and tug/supply vessels for the offshore
oil industry, WYTM icebreaking tugs and WMEC cutters 82-meter
(270 ft) long for the Coast Guard, revolutionary-design tractor
tugs, and high-speed patrol ships, gunboats, and minesweepers for
the Navy and/or foreign governments. The company also helped
design and build an 80-knot surface effect ship (SES).

During the 1984 to mid-1991 period, Tacoma delivered 12
ocean surveillance ships (T-AGOS) to the U.S. Navy. This T-AGOS
contract was a focal point for zone outfitting in which various
portions or "zones" of a ship were built separately as virtually
complete units and then assembled at the launchway.

The Company is working under a contract with the Republic
of China to supply engineering design and technical assistance,
as well as material, equipment and machinery for two 82-meter
(270 ft) Customs Preventative ships being constructed in Taiwan.
The Company is also working under a contract with the Government
of Egypt for the modernization of four Romeo-C Class submarines.
This project includes the upgrading of the navigation,
communications, electronic sensors and weapon systems and will be
accomplished by the Company at the Egyptian Naval facilities in
Alexandria, Egypt.

Tacoma Boat’s facilities include four end-launch
construction ways, the largest of which can construct vessels up
to 131 meters by 15 meters (430 ft by 50 ft). Available for
outfitting and repair work are 411 meters (1,350 ft) of berthing
space.

The total work force at Tacoma Boat at mid-1991 was 88,
compared to 420 a year earlier.

GENERAL

A major shipbuilding and repair facility is defined in this
report as one that is open and has the capability to construct,
drydock, and/or topside repair vessels with a minimum length
overall of 400 feet, provided that water depth in the channel to
the facility is at least 12 feet. Appendix B is a statistical
abstract of data gathered from 108 companies responding to
MARAD’s annual survey which meet these criteria. It lists the
facilities sorted on a coastal basis and displays information
with respect to the size and type of each building position,
drydock, berth space, employment, and remarks regarding principal
shipyard activities.

Table 1 has been prepared to answer the frequent question as
to the number of shipbuilding positions available to build a
complete specified ship. With the exception of the mobilization
ship, the ship types listed in Table 1 are those historically
delivered to commercial service. Length overall and beam are
given for all ships and, in addition, deadweight tonnage is
indicated for the bulk carriers. A single shipway or basin may
have several building positions depending on the size of the
ships being constructed. For example, the 366 meter by 60 meter
(1,200 ft by 198 ft) basin at BethShip’s Sparrows Point Yard can
accommodate one 265,000-dwt. tanker or four of the smaller
general cargo ships. The total number of building positions
varies from 81 for the small cargo ship to three for a huge
265,000-dwt. tanker. An important consideration that is not
addressed in Table 1 is the common shipbuilding practice of
laying a keel on a building position already occupied by another
ship. For example, in a 213-meter (700 ft) basin, a complete
186-meter (610 ft) containership and the stern section of a
second ship could be constructed simultaneously. This production
procedure maximizes the use of shipbuilding facilities, minimizes
the construction period, and increases the number of ships that
can be produced in a given period of time. Table 1 addresses
only the number of complete ships that can be constructed
simultaneously in each building position(s).

Table 2 is a somewhat different presentation of shipyard
capability. In lieu of actual ships, maximum ship length is used
to determine the number of shipways or basins available. In this
tabulation, the emphasis is on the number of individual
facilities available and not on the number of ships that can be
constructed. Again, using the BethShip Sparrows Point Yard as an
example, Table 2 lists the 366 meter by 60 meter (1,200 ft by 198
ft) basin as one facility regardless of what type of ship is
constructed in it. Table 1 indicates that there are six building
positions for a ship 145 meter (475 ft) LOA at the Sparrows Point
Yard, whereas Table 2 indicates that the yard has three
individual building positions capable of constructing a ship
about that length. Exhibit 20 is a histogram displaying the
reduction in the number of available shipways as the maximum ship
length increases.

SHIP REPAIR INDUSTRY

While over 200 privately owned firms of varying capabilities
are involved in repairing ships in the United States, only 41
yards are capable of drydocking vessels 400 feet in length and
over, For ships this size, the U.S. shipbuilding and repair
industry is currently operating a total of 50 floating drydocks,
29 graving docks, and 3 marine railways. However, some of these
graving docks are committed to new construction. The large
organizations which have drydocks generally have extensive
waterfront acreage and are capable of all types of ship repair
and maintenance. Major shipyards usually combine repair,
overhaul, and conversion with shipbuilding capabilities, and
employment usually numbers in the thousands. It is difficult to
draw a sharp line between shipbuilding yards and ship repair
yards, as many of the two engage in both types of work.

Repair (with Drydocking) Facilities

Major drydocking facilities are defined in this report as
those yards having at least one drydocking facility that can
accommodate vessels 400 feet in length and over, provided that
water depth in the channel to the shipyard itself is at least 12
feet. These facilities may also be capable of constructing a
vessel less than 400 feet length overall.

Appendix B tabulates information updated through 1991 on 33 of
these repair yards by geographical location. Additional
information is available in the Office of Ship Construction.

Major Topside Repair Facilities

Major topside repair facilities are those that have
sufficient berth/pier space for topside repair of ships 400 feet
in length and over, provided that water depth in the channel to
the facility itself is at least 12 feet. These facilities may
also have drydocks and/or construction capability for vessels
less than 400 feet in length. Services rendered by these firms
vary from a simple repair job to a major topside overhaul,
particularly when the work on oceangoing ships can be
accomplished without taking the ships out of the water. It is
common practice for a shipyard to send its personnel and
equipment to provide voyage repairs while the ship is at anchor
or working cargo at a commercial marine terminal. There is an
increasing trend worldwide to send ship repairers to the ship
rather than to bring the ship to the shipyard, thus calling for
greater mobility of ship repair personnel.

Appendix B also tabulates information through 1991 on the
topside repair yards’ facilities (berth/pier space). The yards’
building ways, drydocks, marine railways, etc., are not addressed
herein as they cannot accommodate vessels 400 feet in length and
over. However, detailed data for these facilities were obtained
during the MARAD annual shipyard survey and are available in the
Office of Ship Construction.
