On July 6, China Shipbuilding Trading and Waigaoqiao Shipbuilding signed a contract for the construction of 4 7000TEU container ships with Taiwan T.S. Lines. The contract value is more than 300 million US dollars. This is also the largest container ship order since the establishment of T.S. Lines.
This is another batch order for this type of ship signed by CSTC and Waigaoqiao Shipbuilding with Singapore Sea Consortium for 8 7000TEU container ships.
It is reported that after this contract, Waigaoqiao has more than 10 orders for 7000TEU container ships, which has effectively consolidated the company's market share in the medium-sized container ship segment.
The 7000TEU container ship ordered by T.S. Lines adopts the SEALION 7000 wide-body ship type independently designed by SDARI.
This type of ship is a green, energy-saving and environmentally friendly container ship with a total length of 272 meters, a profile width of 42.8 meters, a profile depth of 24.6 meters, and a full-load draft of 15 meters.
The nitrogen oxide emissions meet IMO Tier Ⅲ emission standard, sulfur oxide meets IMO sulfur cap. The ship is equipped with a ballast water treatment system certified by USCG, and meets the requirements of EEDI Phase Ⅲ.
These new ships comply with the future energy-saving regulations and will be delivered successively between April and November 2024 and put on the India-Pakistan route, becoming the first batch of medium and long-range vessels for T.S. Lines to welcome the new 20 years.
