Indonesian shipyard PT Lundin (North Sea Boats) has completed a contract to supply and assist with the construction of 18 high-speed patrol boats for Bangladesh. Delivery of the final vessels, which have been built to the company's proprietary 'X12' design, were completed in early September. The vessels were built under a contract awarded to PT Lundin in November 2014 for eight fast patrol boats for the Bangladesh Navy, which included an option (now exercised) to build 10 more for the Bangladesh Coast Guard. As part of the contract's technology transfer clause, two of the vessels were built in Banyuwangi, Indonesia, while the remaining 16 were constructed at the Bangladesh Navy-owned Dockyard and Engineering Works in collaboration with Indonesian engineers.
