South Korea's HJ Shipbuilding & Construction Co. has
awarded a contract worth a total of 678.97 billion
won ($500 million) for the construction of four
10,100 TEU container ships that have been ordered by a
Oceania company that had already commissioned new ships
to the South Korean shipyard. The new 10,100 TEU containerships, which
will be delivered by April 2029, will be based on a
proprietary project of HJ Shipbuilding & Construction Co. and
are the largest ships that can be built in the shipyard's basin
ship. The new container carriers will be equipped with
scrubbers and will be set up to be fed with methanol.
Since the beginning of this year, the South Korean company has obtained orders
for the construction of eight units of the class of over 10,000
TEU.
