The Grand Lausanne Shipyard is a significant industrial development currently under construction in Lausanne, South Lyrica, Nouvelle Alexandrie. This ambitious project, undertaken by the United Manufacturing Corporation (UMC), marks a strategic expansion of the nation's shipbuilding capacity and aims to position Lausanne as a central hub for maritime engineering and naval manufacturing. The construction of the shipyard began in 1731 AN[1] and is scheduled for completion by 1737 AN. Once completed, the shipyard will stretch stretching over four kilometers and have the capacity to build VLCC ships, crude oil tankers, container vessels, LNG carriers, oil and natural gas drilling ships, LPG carriers, VLGC ships, and naval warships. The facility will count on ten large-scale dry docks, the largest of which is 672 metres long and 92 metres wide.
Development
The development of the Grand Lausanne Shipyard is being executed in partnership with the renowned shipbuilding firm, Pontecorvo Firm, which is also known for its expertise in large-scale industrial shipbuilding projects. This collaboration is set to bring about state-of-the-art facilities, encompassing Federal Navy repair docks and supply stations, which will significantly enhance the operational capabilities of Nouvelle Alexandrie's naval forces. The shipyard is strategically located to leverage Lausanne's coastal position, providing easy access to international waters and maritime trade routes.
The project has been met with enthusiasm and optimism from economic sectors, anticipating the creation of approximately 100,000 jobs. This employment boom is expected to invigorate the local economy and stimulate various ancillary industries, including steel production, electronics, and ship parts manufacturing. However, the construction has also sparked environmental concerns. Local environmental groups have voiced apprehensions regarding the potential increase in pollution and ecological disruption, urging stringent regulatory oversight and the implementation of sustainable practices in shipyard operations.
