China's Dalian Success Innovation Group (DSIG) has picked a domestic yard for its new bulker order.
A total of 10 25,800-dwt ships will be built at DSIC-linked Dalian Shipyard Industrial Development General, brokers said.
Five will be delivered in 2019 and five in 2020.
No price has been given for the ships.
DSIG is not listed as owning any other vessels, and the ships appear to be the yard's first orders.
