The aim of the project is to replace the plating at the pressed tug TR 432. During the periodic technical inspection of the vessel, excessive cladding wear and significant pitting corrosion were detected. The State Navigation Administration issued a provisional ship certificate to the vessel, valid until 17.1.2019. One of the conditions for ensuring the continued safe operation of the vessel and for the further renewal of the ship’s certificate is necessary to replace the shell and its surface treatment.
