Heavy transport vessel CY INTEROCEAN I, operated by Chung Yang Shipping, has marked its first drydocking project in Europe at BLRT Repair Yards’ Klaipėda yard.
The vessel is part of the CY-Class fleet and is described as a specialized heavy transport deck carrier. It is designed to carry oversized, high-value and technically demanding project cargo that does not fit into standard shipping routines.
CY INTEROCEAN I forms part of the heavy transport shipping cooperation between Chung Yang Shipping and BigLift Shipping B.V., together with sister vessel CY INTEROCEAN II.
For the Klaipėda yard, the project required more than providing a docking slot. It involved infrastructure, planning, coordination, communication, technical expertise and a strong QHSE focus to meet the needs of a specialized vessel with complex requirements and demanding operating profiles.
The docking also reflects the role of BLRT Repair Yards in the Baltic Sea region as a repair partner for shipowners seeking technical capability, flexibility and coordination close to key European shipping routes.
