Qingdao Beihai Shipbuilding Heavy Industry has landed a series of capesize bulker newbuildings from sister company CSIC Leasing.
Shipbuilding sources said the China Shipbuilding Industry Co (CSIC)-controlled shipyard has been commissioned to construct four scrubber-fitted 180,000-dwt bulkers for delivery between late 2020 and early 2021. The deal for the ships, which will be built to IMO Tier II standards, does not include any optional vessels.
