Chittagong Dry Dock Limited (CDDL), formerly an enterprise of Bangladesh Steel and Engineering Corporation, is a state-owned military ship repair facility based in near of the Chittagong Port, Bangladesh. CDDL is one of the largest ship builder and repair facilities in East and South Asian region, and one of the three shipyards owned and operated by the Bangladesh Navy. [1]
Chittagong Dry Dock Limited was formerly owned by Bangladesh Steel and Engineering Corporation, built to function complementary to Chittagong Port Authority. It is located in Patenga, Chittagong, Bangladesh. It was built to repair and service ships that dock in Chittagong port. On 23 December 2015 the dock was transferred to Bangladesh Navy. [3] In 2014 the dock started the construction of its first cargo ship. [4] In 2015 the Dry dock built a six entrance footbridge for Sylhet City. [5]
In 2019, Chittagong Dry Dock Limited was awarded the contract to build six heavy duty offshore patrol vessels(OPV)s for the Bangladesh Navy. These ships will replace the Island-class OPVs. [6] [7] [8]
Under the second phase of the FG2030 naval modernization plan, the Bangladesh Navy signed a contract with CDDL for six 2,000-tonnes offshore patrol vessel. The OPV's are intended to guard Bangladesh's Exclusive economic zone (EEZ). [9]
Chittagong Dry Dock has been awarded the contract to undertake the frigate program of the Bangladesh Navy. In the bid to transform from a buyer's navy to builder's navy, the Bangladesh Navy realized its ambitious plan to introduce 6 indigenously built guided missile frigates by 2030. The frigates will incorporate stealth technology, helicopter hangar and state-of-the-art hardware. In 2018, Commodore Mohammad Nazmul Karim said, two frigates will be commissioned in 2022, two by 2025 and two by 2030. [10] However as of March 2021, with the current progress, shipbuilding is likely to be delayed for several more years. Shipbuilding may be further delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.But in any case the frigate production will end before 2030
A shipyard, also called a dockyard or boatyard, is a place where ships are built and repaired. These can be yachts, military vessels, cruise liners or other cargo or passenger ships. Compared to shipyards, which are sometimes more involved with original construction, dockyards are sometimes more linked with maintenance and basing activities. The terms are routinely used interchangeably, in part because the evolution of dockyards and shipyards has often caused them to change or merge roles.
A patrol boat is a relatively small naval vessel generally designed for coastal defence, border security, or law enforcement.

The Arafura class is a class of offshore patrol vessels being built for the Royal Australian Navy (RAN). Initially proposed in the 2009 Defence White Paper and marked as procurement project SEA 1180, it was originally planned that 20 Offshore Combatant Vessels (OCV) would replace 26 vessels across four separate ship classes: the Armidale-class patrol boats, the Huon-class minehunters, the Leeuwin-class survey vessels, and the Paluma-class survey motor launches. Although having a common design, the ships would use a modular mission payload system to fulfill specific roles; primarily border patrol, mine warfare, and hydrographic survey. The 2013 Defence White Paper committed to the OCV project as a long-term goal, but opted in the short term for an accelerated procurement of an existing design to replace the Armidales, and life-extension refits for the other types. This resulted in the Offshore Patrol Vessel (OPV) project and the amount of vessels reduced to 12. However, this was further increased to 14 when 2 further Mine Counter Measures variants were proposed under SEA 1905.
is a military modernization program of the which Began in 2009 and revised in 2017, designed to the capabilities of the three services of the Bangladesh armed forces: the Army, the Navy and the Air Force.
