Jiangnan Shipyard

Jiangnan Shipyard (Chinese: ; pinyin: Jiāngnán Zàochuán Chǎng) is a historic shipyard in Shanghai, China. The shipyard has been state-owned since its founding in 1865 and is now operated as Jiangnan Shipyard (Group) Co. Ltd. One of the largest and most significant shipyards in China, Jiangan is also under the umbrella of the China State Shipbuilding Corporation (CSSC), the country's largest shipbuilder. Established during the later Qing Dynasty, the shipyard has played a role in China's modernisation through successive periods of development. Previously based along the riverbank near Central Shanghai, in 2009 it relocated to Changxing Island in the mouth of the Yangtze River. The shipyard is among the world's largest, specialising in LNG carriers, automated production, and advanced commercial vessels. It is also a major centre of naval production for China's PLA Navy, building a range of classes including the aircraft carrier Fujian.
