Greece’s Almi Marine Management has widened its ultramax newbuilding orderbook at Dalian Cosco KHI Ship Engineering (Dacks).
TradeWinds reported last month how the two companies were close to clinching a shipbuilding contract for a pair of 64,000-dwt ships due for delivery in the first half of 2024.
Ship-management sources in Athens now say the deal materialised and has even been expanded to include a third sistership, which the Athens-based company is scheduled to take delivery of in the fourth quarter of 2024.
