COSCO Shipping has named China's first 16,000 TEU methanol dual-fuel container ship, cosco SHIPPING Yanggpu in Yangzhou.
The methanol dual-fuel container ship named this time is the first in a series from COSCO SHIPPING Holdings, constructed by COSCO Shipping Heavy Industry Yangzhou.
With a total length of 366 metres, a molded beam of 51 metres, and a maximum loading capacity of 16,136 TEU, the vessel represents significant advancements in various aspects, including technological innovation, green technology, and low-carbon digital intelligence.
'It is a crucial part of COSCO Shipping's efforts to meet the demands of green shipping corridors and establish a green methanol industry chain. It will provide robust support for the green transformation of China's shipping industry,' the company said.
With its large methanol storage tank, COSCO Shipping Yangpu will be able to complete a one-way voyage between the Far East and the West Coast of America in 'pure methanol mode' once it is deployed on the carrier's transpacific route.
This capability offers new possibilities for the green optimisation of global shipping routes. Supported by an intelligent ship system, its energy consumption and green, low-carbon, and energy-saving metrics showcase excellent energy utilisation ratio, reports Singapore's Manifold Times.
