Yugoslav Report (continued) "With an orderbook close to 1.5 million gt or about 6 percent of the world total, Jadranbrod yards have established themselves as one of the significant shipbuilders and export- ers in the world. "The dominant role of export or- ders has forced the yards to con- stantly realign themselves with the aggressive and competitive market," Mr. Vrandecic said. Mr. Vrandecic also pointed out that core shipbuilding scientific re- search in hydrodynamics, structure and vibration analysis has provided a solid basis for innovative designs. Among the latest sophisticated deliveries are the first tanker in a series of three 100,000-110,000 dwt sister ships, the Shoshone Spirit for VSSI Carriers of Liberia (built by 3. Maj Shipyard), the 140,000-dwt tanker Jahre Transporter for Liber- ian owners, Viking Line's modern car/passenger cruise ferry Amorella (built bv Brodosplit), and the Osco Sky, the first of three 40,000-dwt product carriers for Liberian owners built by Uljanik Shipyard. The average annual exports of five major Yugoslav shipyards, which represent most of the indus- try and are the main source for data referred in international statistics, SHIPS DELIVERED DURING 1988.

Exports have grown from $50 million in the early sixties to about $450 million ending in 1990, an average increase of 8 per- cent per year. This growth has oc- curred despite the pressure of the downturn in the shipbuilding sector for a portion of the period. It is also interesting to note a rather high ratio, slightly over one, of compen- sated tons/grt showing relatively high complexity of the vessels built in Yugoslav yards. Another notable observation is the so-called "series factor" obtained by dividing the number of ship types built by the total number of ships on order—22 ship types are represented by the 57 vessels on the orderbook, yielding a ratio of 0.4, meaning in essence that less than three ships are covered by one design.
