Two Japanese shipbuilders are joining forces to develop a next-generation handysize bulk carrier.
Onomichi Dockyard and Tsuneishi Shipbuilding have collaborated on the design of a 42,200-dwt bulk carrier, dubbed Bingo 42 — an acronym for “Beyond Innovation, Navigating Green Ocean”.
Onomichi cited the challenges of designing new vessels and the opportunity to improve shipyard efficiency as key drivers of the collaboration.
