CSSC Leasing has booked a pair of Cargill-backed mini-capesize bulkers at affiliate Huangpu Wenchong Shipyard.
The leasing arm of shipbuilding conglomerate China State Shipbuilding Corp (CSSC) ordered the 120,000-dwt baby capes on the back of 12-year charters from Cargill Ocean Transportation, the shipping wing of the US agricultural giant.
Shipbuilding sources familiar with the deal said it brings the total number of 120,000-dwt bulkers ordered by CSSC Leasing at Wenchong to six.
