The signing of the construction order of 10 82,000 dwt bulk carriers this time not only refreshes the record of the largest shipbuilding order signed by Hengli Heavy Industries at one time, but also marks that Hengli Heavy Industries has continuously won the high recognition of the world's mainstream shipowners.
The ship under this order was designed and developed by SDARI. It has notable characteristics such as "green, environmental protection, energy saving, and safety", and is the mainstream bulk carrier ship type in the shipping market.
