These Pollution Control Vessels are being built at the ABG Shipyard in India for the Indian Coastguard Service. ABG Shipyard, the largest private yard in India, has tasked Rolls-Royce in the design & development of three pollution control vessels for the Indian Coast Guard. These ships, based on the Rolls-Royces UT517 ship design, will assist in minimizing the damage caused by potential environmental crises - particularly oil spills - from aging merchant ships in Indian waters. The vessels will feature a range of Rolls-Royce propulsion, steering and motion control equipment and will be built at the ABG Shipyard in Surat.

Autoload is a state of the art software for onboard stability. The program is available in versions suitable for any vessel type and, most importantly, can handle any type or combination of cargo. ASC has delivered systems ranging from an integrated ship planning system for the complete Wallenius Wilhelmsen fleet to an integrated onboard stability solution for Thunderhorse - the biggest semi-submersible rig ever built. At present, Autoload has been installed onboard more than 400 vessels.

ASC is a marine software developer of load planning software, loading instrument software and integrated CAD/CAM programs. For more information email autoload@autoship.com.
