Elbdeich had placed an order for two firmed and two optional methanol-fuelled containerships from CSSC Huangpu Wenchong Shipbuilding in September 2023.
With the growing concerns on carbon-reduction and the demands from zero-carbon vessel, Huangpu Wenchong will continue to increase investment and development in methanol-fuelled vessels, commented the shipyard.
Specialised in feeder boxship construction, Huangpu Wenchong currently has 45 feeder vessel orders on hand.
