沪东中华交付第100艘集装箱船完成年度目标 2025-12-18
With the delivery of the world's largest dual-fuel powered container ship to French shipping and logistics group CMA CGM Group, Hudong-Zhonghua Shipbuilding (Group) Co Ltd, a unit of the world's largest shipbuilder China State Shipbuilding Corp, has announced that it has achieved the milestone of delivering 100 large-scale container ships.
Named CMA CGM Vendome, the ship, which was delivered on December 12, arrives eight and a half months ahead of schedule. It is also the third vessel of its kind that Hudong-Zhonghua has delivered to CMA CGM, each with a capacity of 24,000 TEU (twenty-foot equivalent units), according to the Shanghai-based shipyard.
Measuring 399 meters in length and 61.3 meters in width, the dual-fuel powered container ship reduces emissions of sulphur and fine particles by 99 percent, nitrogen oxides by 85 percent, and carbon dioxide by about 20 percent compared with conventional vessels.
Over more than four decades, Hudong-Zhonghua has built container ships ranging from 1,714 TEUs to ultra-large vessels with a capacity of over 24,000 TEUs.
Currently, the shipbuilder's delivery schedule is fully booked through 2028, with 37 container ships planned for construction and delivery.
