TAIWAN's ts Lines has placed an order for six 1,100-TEU ships at Fujian Mawei Shipbuilding, reports Rotterdam's Offshore Energy.
The vessels will feature Shanghai Ship Design and Research Institute's (SDARI) design and are the latest generation of vessels for China-Japan shipping routes.
The new generation of 11,00-TEUers is further optimised and upgraded to achieve energy saving and environmental protection targets. The vessels are 147.9 metres long, 23.25 metres wide, and have 13,300 deadweight tons.
The move follows TS Lines' announcement made last month, revealing the order of four 7,000-TEU containerships at Shanghai Waigaoqiao Shipbuilding.
TS Lines operates a fleet of 46 containerships with a total capacity of 100,000 TEU, engaged predominantly in trading in the Asian region.
With this contract the company has more than 10 orders for 7,000-TEU containerships, which has consolidated its market share in the medium-sized containership segment.
