Shipping company Höegh Autoliners ASA is making significant progress in its ambition to make the Aurora Class the world's first PCTC vessel to run on ammonia.
ClassNK has entered a collaborative research and development (R&D) agreement with Nihon Shipyard (NSY) and IMC aimed at ensuring the safety and performance evaluation of anti-roll tanks (ART) installed on large container ships.
The vessels will have a cargo carrying capacity of 88,000 m3, and will incorporate environmental technology developed through 12 years of Solvang's ECO LPG Carrier programme.
Up until now, CMA CGM has been using shipyards in China and occasionally in the Middle East, but this agreement marks for the first time their use of European yards for these complex modifications.
MEYER WERFT and Carnival Corporation (USA) have reached an agreement to build another modern cruise ship for Carnival Cruise Line for delivery in 2028.
Only few weeks after the delivery of the Humaita, the Tonelero was successfully launched in Itaguaí and will soon start sea trials in order to be delivered in 2025.
The vessel boasts 60 tonnes of bollard pull, with which it will enhance harbour towage operations in the ports of Split and Ploče on the Dalmatian coast.
The two partners have set themselves a goal to be in a position to commission PONANT’s Swap2Zero project and the first energy ship at the same time by 2030.
