Vipul shipyard
The Vipul shipyard is a shipbuilding works at Magdalla Port in the Surat district of Gujarat.
As of 2007, the works consisted of a slipway and 100 meters of waterfront spread across 8 acres of land.[1] In May 2007, the ABG Shipyard Limited signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) for its acquisition.[2] In August 2007, the acquisition was completed and thus Vipul Shipyard gained control of the ABG shipyard.[3] After acquisition, a further contiguous 12 acres was added to it. This led to an increase in the waterfront by 200 meters.[1] The works is now also referred as "ABG shipyard unit-II."
