TWO BIO DOCKS To cope with the increased demand for super-mammoth tankers, SASEBO is expanding its present No.4 shipbuild- ing dock to 380,000 dwt. capacity without hindering the progress of the 16th of the total of twenty-one 210,000 dwt. standard type tankers under construction. The huge ultra-modern No.3 repair dock of 400,000 dwt. in capacity is in full operation, day and night, to provide quick, reliable and efficient repair services. With these two super-large docks, located side by side, and with the modernized large scale production facilities, SASEBO's shipbuilding and repair efficiencies are tripled. The laying of the keel for 250,000 dwt. tanker is sched- uled to begin early in 1972 followed by 270,000 dwt. class. SASEBO is continuously moving ahead to maintain its po- sition as one of the leading shipbuilders in the world in this super-mammoth tanker era.
