Title: Oceanbulk container ship order at Shanghai Waigaoqiao Shipbuilding.
Post by: MO Roy on January 22, 2019, 12:35:03 PM

Anybody knows what happened to the order for 3 containerships of around 11.000teu for Oceanbulk at Shanghai Waigaoqiao Shipbuilding.
They should have been delivered back in 2017 originally.
Has the order been sold onwards with delayed delivery, or has the order been cancelled altogether?
Cheers,
Roy

The Oceanbulk Containers venture was wound up and the order for three ships never finalised.

The order for these vessels to be SWS H-1388, 1389 and 1390 was initially swapped to three bulkers and then transferred to Star Bulk who Oceanbulk had merged with in 2014..   Not sure if built though.
