NB83 M/T AMONITH will be launched on Saturday

Date: 29 November 2025

Our IMO II Chemical Tanker, NB83 Project Numbered M/T AMONITH, Will Be Launched on 29 November 2025.

The IMO II Chemical Tanker with project number NB83, currently under construction at our shipyard which has been serving the maritime industry for over 65 years, will be launched at a ceremony to be held on Saturday, 29 November 2025.

NB831

Laid down in December 2024, our vessel will be launched on 29 November 2025 and will be ready for service by the end of March 2026, once all tests been completed.

The last vessel in a series of four, this project features an already award-winning, efficient hydrodynamic hull design by NORDEN Ship Design House, which has been further improved with additional CFD analyses, reducing hull resistance by 6%.

Developed through R&D and design activities carried out entirely by Turkish engineers, the M/T AMONITH stands out with a propulsion system that is 25% more efficient than similar vessels. The vessel can reach a maximum speed of 13 knots with 2800 kW of power when fully loaded with 8100 tonnes of cargo.

In line with our shipyard's approach of working with the best brands in the industry, the local content ratio in our project is 45%.

M/T AMONITH is certified under Dual Class by Bureau Veritas and Türk Loydu, both of which are IACS members.

NB83-2

Our project, which can carry the same amount of cargo at the same speed but with lower power and therefore lower emissions, is being built to be suitable for methanol fuel in line with an environmentally friendly approach; it will also contribute to environmental protection by filtering NOx emissions through the SCR system. The vessel has CleanShip class notation.

Our ship is also equipped with a ballast water treatment system to prevent the transport of invasive species from other seas.

It is ready for the 'Cold Ironing' application, with a 3 x 350A capacity transformer, shore connection management system and related panels installed to enable 690V or 440V power supply from shore. The infrastructure will be ready for implementation once the rules and standards for shore connection are established.

The engine room is designed to be compatible with fully automated systems and, thanks to the PTI feature of the shaft generator, can also be powered by electricity generated by the ship's generators in emergency situations.

The cargo tanks of the IMO II Oil/Chemical Tanker are made of Duplex 2205 stainless steel and can handle partial loading of heavy acid cargoes with a specific gravity of 1.86 tonnes/cbm and have a 4-segregated loading and unloading capacity.
