What is the length of the new dry dock at Cochin Shipyard that will be used to construct large vessels under the collaboration?

The shipbuilding collaboration will utilise a 310-metre dry dock, which is large enough to accommodate construction and outfitting of sizeable ocean-going vessels. Dry dock length is a critical infrastructure metric: a 310-metre dock supports assembly of large hull blocks and full ship launches, enabling higher-value contracts (such as product tankers, container vessels, or offshore support ships). Such capacity upgrades are essential to move from smaller repair work toward full-scale construction and to attract international orders.
