Amur Shipbuilding Plant Joint-Stock Company

As Amur's shipyard progressed with its modernization efforts, it transformed itself into a versatile manufacturing entity equipped to produce a wide range of products. Its facilities have successfully delivered over 200 civilian vessels, including ones for general cargo and passenger transport. Among these, ten specialized vessels, comprising both transport ships and icebreakers, have significantly contributed to operations in the Arctic over an extended period.

The creative minds at the shipyard secured 234 copyright certifications and four patents, underscoring their technical innovative prowess. Their achievements garnered not only 8 gold, 55 silver, and 180 bronze medals at the USSR's Exhibition of Economic Achievements but also propelled 12 of the shipyard's workers to earn prestigious awards like the Stalin, Lenin, and State Prizes. Demonstrating the talent and dedication circulating within, over 20,000 shipbuilders have been honored with government awards, including ten who received the esteemed gold stars of Heroes of Socialist Labor.

The robust production and socio-economic infrastructure developed through years of diligent work provided the Amur Shipbuilding Plant with the resilience needed to navigate through challenging times of national economic reform. With exceptional dedication, the workforce adapted part of their operations to accommodate new, atypical tasks that emerged during this period.

Emerging victorious in several high-profile international bids allowed the shipyard to participate in groundbreaking projects. Notably, it involved the development and enhancement of oil and gas platforms on the Sakhalin shelf. The international arena took note, leading to significant orders, such as a transport and towing vessel for the Vietnamese shelf's oil rig services, and a seismic survey ship for the Indian Oil and Natural Gas Corporation. Additionally, a notable milestone was achieved with a German firm contracting the shipyard for the construction of chemical tankers, marking the first instance of Germany commissioning shipbuilding projects in Russia.
