SITC orders 6+2+2 ships from Yangzijiang

On December 19, 2020, SITC International Holdings and Yangzijiang Shipbuilding successfully held a signing ceremony for the new 2600TEU container shipbuilding project.
 
Following the new shipbuilding signing ceremony in November 2020, SITC International and Yangzijiang Shipbuilding have once again joined hands to deepen cooperation.
 
The first batch of 4 2400TEU container ships between Yangzijiang and SITC International was signed at the end of November 2017.
 
In 2018, two additional 2400TEU container ships were added. In the same year, the two parties signed three upgraded 2700TEU container ships with cranes.
 
In 2020, with the orders of large ship enterprises dropping to the lowest level in 30 years, the cooperation between the two sides reached a new height. Two new shipbuilding contracts were signed on August 30 and November 30, 2020 respectively.
 
With a total length of 185.99 meters, the ship is 35.2 meters wide and has a draft depth of 11 meters. With the latest energy saving straight Bow s-Bow and efficient twist rudder, it belongs to the feeder ship with wide hull, shallow draft, large deadweight, and superior comprehensive performance index. Outstanding performance in fuel efficiency, cargo efficiency and flexibility, EEDI targets meet phase III standards.
