More than 200 vessels in China are facing potential delays in their repair, retrofit or maintenance works, according to estimates of China Association of the National Shipbuilding Industry (Cansi).
In a study of Cansi’s shiprepair branch, the Beijing-based industry group said 93.3% of the ships are owned by foreign companies.
The calculations are based on the number of ships at the 15 main Chinese repair yards that form the Shiprepair Periodical Coordination Conference.
