China Delivers World’s Largest 84,500DWT Multipurpose Pulp Carrier

We are thrilled to announce the delivery of the CSPC HORIZON, the world’s largest and most advanced multipurpose pulp carrier, designed by Shanghai Merchant Ship Design & Research Institute (SDARI) and built by Fujian Mawei Shipbuilding Co., Ltd. This 84,500DWT giant marks a groundbreaking achievement in China’s pursuit of excellence in high-end, specialized vessel construction.

Unmatched Capacity & Versatility:
With a total length of 225 meters, beam of 36 meters, and a deadweight of 85,000 tons, the CSPC HORIZON redefines efficiency. Its open, step-free cargo hold design ensures optimal loading for paper pulp, while its flexibility extends to transporting wind turbines, high-speed rail components, heavy machinery, and even refrigerated containers on deck.

Smart & Cost-Effective Innovation:
Advanced hull optimization, propeller design, and energy-saving configurations slash operational costs. Equipped with SDARI’s intelligent ship system and Digital Operation Support System (DOSS), it delivers next-gen smart shipping solutions tailored to owner needs.

Leading the Green Transition:
The vessel exceeds IMO’s EEDI Phase III requirements with 50% lower carbon emissions, supported by a high-pressure SCR system and open-loop scrubbers. Notably, it holds “methanol-ready” and “decarbonization-ready” class notations, paving the way for future fuel adaptability.
