CSSC Chengxi Shipyard Wins Two Ultramax BCs

Greek owner Dalnave Navigation Inc. has placed an order with CSSC Chengxi Shipyard for the construction of two 64,000-dwt bulk carriers.

The bulk carriers, designed by SDARI and built by Chengxi Shipyard according to the worldwide shipping development and owner’s diversified needs, are ultramax vessels with energy-efficient, environmentally-friendly, and economic characteristics.
