JAPANESE owned but Singapore based Ocean Network Express has taken delivery of the 14,052-TEU ONE Apus at the Kure Shipyard of Japan Marine United Corporation.

This is the second delivery of 2019 and the sixth of a series of seven newly built 14,000-TEU magenta ships. The sublet owner is Nippon Yusen Kaisha.



ONE Apus employs a hull form with minimised engine-room space to improve cargo-loading efficiency. The main diesel engine is fitted with a dual-rating system to facilitate flexibility in operations and boost fuel efficiency to reduce greenhouse gases.



The vessel will be deployed on THE Alliance's East Coast 4 service connecting Asia with the US east coast, calling at the ports of Kaohsiung, Hong Kong, Shenzhen-Yantian, Cai Mep, Singapore, New York, Norfolk, Savannah, Charleston, New York, Singapore and Kaohsiung.
