The construction of the NBL-91 project non-self-propelled vessels at NIBULON shipbuilding and repair yard is important not only for the company itself but also for the Ukrainian economy in whole. The vessels are intended for operation on shallow rivers; thereby, such rivers as the Southern Bug will become full-fledged transport arteries. NIBULON plans to construct 12 such vessels (in addition, 12 shallow-draught tugs (121 project) and 35 non-self-propelled Volgo-Don Max class vessels).
