COSCO SHIPPING to construct six crude oil tankers

These vessels have increased overall performance, better energy efficiency design indices, and are built to meet future fuel requirements, according to COSCO, as they are both LNG-ready and methanol-ready. The design of these vessels has also been optimised across various hull profiles, ensuring an optimal match between the power output and speed of the main engines. This optimisation tries to maximise energy savings while retaining high economic efficiency.

They are reportedly the world’s largest professional pulp transport vessels, with an overall length of 225.0 metres, a width of 32.26 metres, and a moulded depth of 21.0  They are intended for a cruising speed of 15 knots and an endurance of 25,000 nautical miles, encapsulating the spirit of energy-efficient green shipping.

The ships’ cargo holds have a container-type construction and are fitted with rotary dehumidifiers to ensure ideal conditions for pulp cargo, assuring both quality and safety throughout transit.

COSCO reported that the ships’ versatility extends even further, making it ideal for transporting high-speed rail trains, wind turbine equipment, new energy vehicles, huge machinery, and ultra-long and heavy steel pipe pile constructions. To meet the special needs of carrying new energy vehicles, this series has a one-to-one temperature monitoring and early warning system.

In November, COSCO SHIPPING Chancay Port began trial operations after successfully unloading new energy vehicles and other transport products from the M.V. COSCO SHIPPING Honor and M.V. COSCO Teng Fei.
