The order has been awarded by Garden Reach Shipbuilders & Engineers Ltd (GRSE) for the construction of 2 vessels intended for the Geological Survey of India.
The 2 ships will be deployed for coastal exploration, supporting critical scientific operations such as offshore geological mapping, mineral exploration with dredging, and ocean environment monitoring. Each vessel will be equipped with advanced shipboard laboratories for data processing and sample analysis, enabling comprehensive research at sea. Importantly, the builds will adhere to classification norms set by the Indian Register of Shipping.

This development adds another dimension to TRSL’s diversified engineering portfolio, strengthening its presence in marine infrastructure and reinforcing its role in India’s infrastructure and coastal capabilities.
By securing this project, the company continues to align itself with the nation’s strategic objectives in scientific research and coastal resource development.
