Yesterday Marchmont reported $200m worth of Russo-Sino-Singaporean plans to build a super-dockyard in Vladivostok. No other detail was then available.

More information came earlier today.

According to Primorsky regional officials, dockyard construction will kick off in March 2010.

The super-dockyard will reportedly build ocean-going oil rigs and related equipment, as well as tankers and ships to transport chemicals with up to 150,000 deadweight tonnage.
