The company is said to have paid more than $100m each for the 8,900-ceu carriers — a record high level
China’s SAIC Anji Logistics has picked two domestic shipyards to build seven large conventional-fuelled but methanol-ready pure car/truck carrier (PCTC) newbuildings to be delivered between 2025 and 2026.
A source with knowledge of the car carrier sector said China Merchants Industry Holdings (CMHI) Jinling and Jiangnan Shipyard have been contracted by SAIC Anji to build four and three 8,900-ceu PCTCs respectively.
The series of newbuildings follow a tender that SAIC Anji floated in November last year.
