Klaveness Combination Carriers (KCC) says its newbuilding program in China has been delayed by the coronavirus outbreak.
The Oslo-listed shipowner is in the middle of an eight-ship series of Cleanbu combination carriers at Jiangsu New Yangzi Shipbuilding.
“The delivery of the next Cleanbu vessels will be delayed…and the shipyard has declared a force majeure situation for delays caused by the virus outbreak,” KCC said Tuesday.
