About Alang

What is Alang Ship Breaking Yard?

Alang Ship Breaking Yard, located on the Gulf of Khambhat coastline in Bhavnagar district, Gujarat, India, is the world's largest ship recycling and dismantling facility. It spans approximately 10 kilometres of coastline and is home to over 150 ship recycling plots.

Approximately 50% of the world's retired ships are dismantled at Alang. This makes it an unparalleled source of high-quality used marine equipment, engines, turbochargers, pumps, compressors, and thousands of individual spare parts — all recovered from vessels that were in service with leading international shipping companies.

UTS Marine LLP was founded by industry veterans with direct experience working at Alang. This gives us exclusive access to parts not available from any other source, at prices significantly below OEM new-part pricing, without compromising on quality.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Alang Ship Breaking Yard and sourcing marine parts

How does the ship recycling process at Alang ensure part viability?

Marine machinery arriving at Alang Ship Breaking Yard is extracted from operational vessels. Before removal, our engineers identify high-value components (like turbochargers, purifiers, and engine parts) that were recently overhauled or show minimal running hours. These parts are carefully dismantled, preserved, and transported to our Bhavnagar warehouse for rigorous NDT testing to guarantee operational viability.

What is the typical cost saving for used marine machinery sourced from Alang?

Procuring used or reconditioned marine spare parts directly from Alang typically results in cost savings of 40% to 80% compared to purchasing brand-new OEM equivalents. For major assemblies like complete auxiliary engines, crankshafts, or large ABB turbochargers, the financial savings can exceed tens of thousands of dollars per vessel drydocking.

Can you source heat exchangers and fresh water generators from Alang ship dismantling?

Yes. Alang Ship Breaking Yard is an exceptional source for large marine heat exchangers (central coolers, jacket water coolers) and fresh water generators (Alfa Laval, Sasakura, Hamworthy) recovered intact from vessels. These are especially sought-after as new OEM units have extremely long lead times and very high costs.

What test certificates accompany marine parts recovered from Alang?

No used part is sold "as-is". Every critical component sourced from Alang is subjected to Level II/III Non-Destructive Testing (NDT), including Magnetic Particle Inspection (MPI) and Ultrasonic Testing (UT). We provide these detailed NDT reports, dimensional calibration certificates, and material test certificates with every shipment.

Can international buyers request parts from a specific ship or vessel class being broken at Alang?

Yes. Buyers looking for parts from a specific engine family (for example, parts exclusively from a MAN B&W K98MC vessel) can request us to monitor incoming Alang plot schedules. We will identify vessels matching their requirements, recover the specified components, and notify the buyer with photos and initial condition reports before committing to purchase.
