The vessels will be
planned, manufactured, and delivered over the course of 33 months from the
original contract signing date. The transaction does not entail any related

Garden Reach Shipbuilders and Engineers inked a deal in June 2024 with
Carsten Rehder Schiffsmakler and Reederei GmbH & Co to build and deliver
four multi-purpose cargo boats. The
contract is valued around $54 million, and the order will be fulfilled in 33
months.
GRSE has inked an agreement with German shipping business Carsten Rehder
Schiffsmakler und Reederei GmbH and Co. KG to build and deliver four
multi-purpose vessels, with the option of building another four ships in the
near future.
The vessels will be 120 meters long and 17 meters broad, with a cargo
capacity of 7,500 tonnes each. Each vessel will have a single cargo hold for
bulk, general, and project cargoes, with the option of transporting containers
on hatch covers. Furthermore, the ships have been specifically designed to
transport many enormous windmill blades on deck.
This takes the
total contract value to around $108 million for the design and construction of
eight 7,500 DWT multipurpose vessels.
