Istanbul Naval Shipyard
Istanbul Naval Shipyard (Turkish: İstanbul Donanma Tersanesi), also known as Pendik Naval Shipyard, is a naval shipyard of the Turkish Navy on the northeastern coast of the Sea of Marmara in Tuzla, Istanbul, Turkey. It is the largest shipbuilding facility in Turkey.Right after the 1999 İzmit earthquake, which caused also heavy damage to the facilities of the Turkish Navy located in Gölcük, Kocaeli, the Navy Command decided to relocate the shipbuilding activities at the Gölcük Naval Shipyard to the Istanbul Naval Shipyard, leaving only the ship maintenance and reparation works there.The shipyard has one of the largest shipbuilding drydocks in the country, with the dimensions of 300 m × 50 m × 8.5 m (984 ft × 164 ft × 28 ft) (length x width x depth). The drydock is serviced by one Kone portal crane with the lifting capacity of 450 tons. In addition, the shipyard has a semi-drydock slipway with the dimensions of 200 m × 38 m (656 ft × 125 ft) (length by width), serviced by one portal crane with the lifting capacity of 300 tons.
