Perm’s shipbuilding ambitions have received national attention after Perm Shipyard was featured on RBC TV’s Made in Russia program.
The report examines Perm’s growing role in the development of electric water transport and the wider modernization of river infrastructure in Russia. The region is pursuing an integrated approach that combines shipbuilding with the development of berthing facilities and river transportation networks.
Among the developments highlighted is the construction of 24 berthing complexes for river trams on the Moskva River, alongside a major modernization program at the Perm shipyard.
The shipyard is entering a new stage of development focused on the construction of new-generation vessels, while plans are also advancing to restore a fleet of high-speed motor ships for river transportation in the Perm Region.
The RBC program featured Perm Region Governor Dmitry Makhonin and Andrey Sergeev, General Director of Perm River Shipping Company, discussing the region’s shipbuilding and river-transport ambitions.
The television coverage underscores the growing importance being placed on domestic shipbuilding, electric water transport and the revival of Russia’s inland waterways.

Tonight I'm flying to Perm and the fact
0:05
is [music] that the Russian minister of
0:06
transport called the capital Priami one
0:09
of the leaders in the development of
0:10
river electric [music] transport. Perm
0:13
along with Moscow, Nijni, Nogorot,
0:15
Yaroslav and Tatastan is developing ship
0:17
building in conjunction with the
0:19
development of birth infrastructure and
0:21
is doing so in collaboration with other
0:23
regions.
0:24
>> Behind me are Moscow's dock complexes
0:26
for river trams. They were all made in
0:29
perm.
0:38
In this episode, we will talk about the
0:40
new stage of development of the perm
0:42
shipyard. We will evaluate the
0:44
experience of restoring the flotilla
0:46
highspeed ships and landing pierce.
0:48
>> We have a court to the east. The next
0:50
navigation will work and we [music] have
0:52
two meteors proy to the end of the
0:53
renovation. Let's connect with captains
0:56
of next generation ships on the kama.
0:58
>> Three generations of children who never
1:00
saw what a high-speed fleet [music] was
1:09
80 kilometers [music] of coastline along
1:12
the kama its tributaries and streams.
1:14
Only St. Petersburg and Soi are equal in
1:17
length along the waterways of Perm.
1:19
Historically, from spring to autumn,
1:21
water transport on the Kama was the main
1:23
means of communication between
1:25
residential areas, nearby settlements,
1:27
and small towns. And after a decade of
1:30
decline, the region's river fleet is
1:32
being revived in Perm. In 1926, the
1:35
country's first high-speed river taxi
1:37
was launched.
1:38
>> At the Perm River Station, I step onto a
1:40
locally produced modular pier.
1:45
The Lucer 398 a project by St.
1:48
Petersburg ship builders is more to the
1:50
birth.
1:51
>> Last night they [music] asked me
1:52
somewhere how you worked where I say I
1:55
worked on a rocket. What did I fly in
1:56
space in? I say no there have been such
1:59
courts. They have no idea. Well now
2:02
everything is being revived. Of course I
2:04
am from Nishnogot. Here I restored the
2:07
rocket. We made it started the engine.
2:09
did a run and I gave my consent to work
2:12
here in the first stride [music]
2:13
passage.
2:14
>> It feels remarkably roomier within than
2:16
it appears outside.
2:17
>> Yes, it turns out that you can do
2:19
whatever you want from above like a
2:20
shell, but here the space immediately
2:22
enters.
2:24
>> Capacity of 18 passengers. What is the
2:26
cruising speed?
2:27
>> Mostly 60. It has no hydro foils but no
2:30
rear ones and the handling is good. Now
2:33
we are going. We have a flight to crash
2:35
nokacha.
2:38
Tickets for the flights are sold out
2:40
instantly and Kulva is only one swallow
2:42
in the taxi fleet of the Perm River
2:44
fleet. Five more boats will join it. But
2:47
in order to restore passenger roots,
2:49
ships alone are not enough. Moing
2:52
infrastructure is needed.
2:58
Birth infrastructure and camo are
3:00
provided by the shipyard revived in 21
3:02
and its recent history began with a
3:04
contract for the production of 20
3:06
floating stopping complexes for Moscow
3:09
River Tramps. Already in 22 the
3:12
production workshops resembled
3:13
futuristic orbital shipyards from
3:15
science fiction movies. And in 26 at the
3:19
shipyard slurries we found a section of
3:21
a cruise ship and original modular
3:24
births of our own design. I am an
3:26
economist by profession. The idea seemed
3:28
quite ambitious to me to revive ship
3:30
building here in our country in the Perm
3:32
region. And so I decided to connect my
3:35
professional track with the shipyard. In
3:37
the 25th year, we completed the first
3:39
stage of modernization of the Perm
3:41
shipyard. The roof glazing facads were
3:44
repaired. A new boiler room was built.
3:46
About 40 units of metal working welding
3:48
equipment were purchased. At the
3:50
beginning of the year, we manufactured
3:51
the birth for cruise ships.
3:55
It is located in the city of Sarapur.
3:57
Now we have a cruise ship by Kal in
4:00
production. That is we see how the hull
4:02
parts are cut to make a section of the
4:04
ship. Hundreds of parts for each
4:07
section. Each is numbered for ease of
4:09
assembly. The numbers are engraved by a
4:11
laser machine before cutting the rolled
4:13
sheet. The liner is not built as a whole
4:15
but sectionally. The hull consists of 83
4:18
sections.
4:19
For example, the bow section of the
4:21
ship. It is already completely ready.
4:23
Now it is waiting for sand blasting and
4:25
will be sent to the paint booth.
4:27
>> And on the neighboring site, the
4:29
construction of preliminary sections has
4:30
been completed.
4:32
>> In them, we can see technological holes
4:34
for the thruster and the anchor device.
4:37
>> The final assembly of the hull will take
4:39
place on the shore of the hangar at its
4:41
source from Lake Bal. Couple of hundred
4:43
meters from the production facilities,
4:45
another modular birth is [music] waiting
4:47
to be launched on the KMA.
4:49
>> It was built for the city of Osa and is
4:50
being prepared for launch. In principle,
4:52
we will already build a series of such
4:54
birds due to the fact that this product
4:55
is serial. We managed to optimize the
4:57
construction period and improve quality
5:00
manufacturing. And we [music] built this
5:01
one in literally 3 4 months. Here a
5:04
river tanker is being restored. And a
5:06
little further down the pier in Zon, a
5:08
completely restored high-speed ship
5:10
Voscot 50 is m.
5:11
>> This is our first project together with
5:14
our partners the hot company. He waited
5:17
25 years for his work. It stood
5:20
literally here behind the peninsula at
5:22
the Kama repair plant. It was almost
5:24
completely stolen. The windows were
5:26
broken. This is what the Kama ship
5:29
repair station looked like in 1921. And
5:31
here is our VOC 50 before its
5:33
restoration. [music] In the summer of
5:35
1926, it returned to service with the
5:37
Perm Territory River Flatillaa. 83
5:40
million were spent on the restoration
5:41
[music] of this ship. New ship of the
5:43
same plan cost 700 million. Now there
5:46
are two meteors for restoration already.
5:49
The Sunrise now looks like it came off
5:51
the slate in ' 86. Even better than the
5:53
seats upholstered in leather, the
5:55
interior is covered with snow white
5:57
panels. The main engine was changed,
5:59
complete analog.
6:01
>> All the systems of the motor ship have
6:03
been upgraded. Now it is a modern
6:04
high-speed liner. The ship restoration
6:07
project turned out to be successful and
6:09
most importantly economically
6:11
profitable. The governor of the Perm
6:13
territory not only supported the project
6:15
but launched a program to revive the
6:18
river fleet. We met with Dimmitri
6:19
[music] Mcconin at the cities of the
6:21
future forum.
6:22
>> We are developing the river in several
6:24
directions. We want to strive for new
6:26
environmentally friendly and economical
6:27
transport to operate on the river and
6:29
this is primarily electric transport.
6:31
>> We plan to [music] build several more
6:33
electric ships in the near future. We
6:35
have the opportunity to [music] produce
6:37
electric ships and we also have
6:39
infrastructure for charging. These are
6:42
peers developed here in Perm
6:44
specifically for the creation and
6:46
development of river infrastructure
6:48
which was and [music] still is
6:50
catastrophically lacking. This progress
6:52
began back in Charapool. We are grateful
6:54
to the Duma Republic for this decision.
6:57
This provides [music] the opportunity
6:58
for better logistics between Kazan and
7:00
Perm. But again here we are taking two
7:02
paths. Modern new equipment but also
7:05
restoring the old one. Well in
7:07
particular these debrocators that stood
7:09
everywhere and that's it. You can see
7:11
them in the movie Traitors for example.
7:14
But it seems to me that this is very
7:15
cool, precisely cool because it gives
7:17
such romance charm to the river.
7:20
Stations in fact on the water give the
7:22
opportunity to enjoy the view. And
7:23
secondly, they are quite functional. One
7:26
of the landing pers will be installed in
7:28
Kkachka, a popular perm resort. It is
7:31
there [music] that the Kula River taxi
7:32
now delivers passengers and the first
7:35
already restored decorates the central
7:37
embankment of Perm.
7:47
And this is another novelty of the
7:49
season at the restored debarcated.
7:52
>> Yes, there was a fleet there. There is
7:53
already a moing infrastructure here. It
7:55
is precisely in this place that there is
7:56
a large difference in water level.
7:59
Therefore, stationary birds are not
8:01
always able to accept any water
8:03
transport, especially highspeed ones.
8:05
both large passengers can approach them
8:08
and high-speed fleets which are lower.
8:12
>> The landing pier is [music] good because
8:13
it has a roof, a mother and child room,
8:16
toilets, and even an elevator. But in
8:18
order to see the large modular pier, we
8:21
climbed aboard the electric catamaran
8:23
echo. On it, we will go on a trip to a
8:25
micro district of the city far from the
8:27
center. The ship's captain, Roman Norof,
8:31
a Perm resident and hereditary river
8:33
speaker, returned to his hometown after
8:35
working on heavy trucks in the northern
8:37
seas. We have a full capacity of 130
8:40
passengers. The average [music] person
8:41
is 80. In good weather, we have over 100
8:44
people. Over the past 3, five years,
8:46
everyone has seen that new
8:48
infrastructure, buildings, and birds are
8:50
appearing at the river station. The
8:52
river station is developing.
8:55
The historic building of the river
8:56
station in the center of Pum has been
8:58
completely [music] reconstructed. But in
9:00
parallel, embankments in remote
9:02
neighborhoods have been reconstructed.
9:05
Good example is Zakamsk.
9:10
An hour and a half on a rock from
9:12
[music] the center of Perm to Zakamska.
9:14
And I have MP2 under my feet. Modular
9:16
birth 2.
9:18
It is much bigger than the one we saw
9:20
downtown.
9:22
and Zakamski itself has recently
9:25
changed a lot for the better.
9:27
>> The new embankment became the starting
9:29
point of the district's dawn. As is
9:32
usually the case, urban aesthetics
9:34
change people's attitudes towards
9:35
[music] life and the city. The
9:37
embankments and river infrastructure of
9:39
the Kama continue to develop. Following
9:41
the Voscot 50 ship, two more high-speed
9:44
meteors and two [music] landing peers
9:45
are awaiting renovation. New stages of
9:48
modernization of the shipyard vessel,
9:50
the purchase of new [music] vessels for
9:52
the Kama fleet, and new collaborations
9:54
with ship builders and consumers of
9:56
river infrastructure in other regions
9:58
are ahead.
