Design and description
Capacity
The Deepak-class tanker can carry 17,900 tonnes (17,600 long tons; 19,700 short tons) of cargo, including 15,500 tonnes (15,300 long tons; 17,100 short tons) tonnes of liquid cargo (water, ship and aircraft fuel) and 500 tonnes (490 long tons; 550 short tons) tonnes of solid cargo (victuals and ammunition). It can handle 16 cargo containers on the upper deck and was equipped with an eight-bed hospital, with laboratory and X-ray facilities.[6] The modern cargo handling facility on board the ship enables transfer of heavy solid cargo via a 30 tonnes (30 long tons; 33 short tons) capacity deck crane, and simultaneous fuelling of multiple ships at sea, and can refuel at the rate of 1,500 tonnes (1,500 long tons; 1,700 short tons) per hour.[2][7] Workshop facilities on the ship can support other ships of the fleet and it is capable of supporting heavy helicopters.[8]
Service history
Deepak, along with INS Delhi took part in India-Brazil-South Africa Maritime (IBSAMAR 111) during October 2012. This ships docked at Durban for three days as part of the deployment.[6][9]
