HUDONG-Zhonghua Shipbuilding, a subsidiary of China State Shipbuilding Corporation (CSSC), announced that the CMA CGM Sao Paolo, a 13,000-TEU dual-fuel ship has completed sea trials, reports Rotterdam's Offshore Energy.
Prior to sea trials, the shipyard's project team meticulously planned each production phase in advance, ensuring that dozens of tests were completed successfully.
After a seven-day trial, the vessel returned to the shipyard on April 29. The CMA CGM Sao Paolo is the fourth of six 13,000 TEU LNG-powered containerships that Hudong-Zhonghua is building for French shipping giant CMA CGM.
This order is part of CMA CGM's US$2.3 billion dual-fuel, liquefied natural gas (LNG)-powered containership fleet renewal programme.
Hudong-Zhonghua recently delivered another 13,000 TEU LNG-powered containership to CMA CGM, the CMA CGM Paraty.
Additionally, the CMA CGM Bahia joined the fleet in December last year.
