China’s Jiangnan Shipbuilding, a subsidiary of CSSC, hosted a steel-cutting ceremony on Friday, August 19, for the first 7,600 CEU LNG dual-fuel pure car and truck carrier (PCTC) being built for SAIC Anji Logistics , a subsidiary of China’s automobile manufacturer SAIC Motor.
Two vessels were ordered in January this year, with CSSC’s China Shipbuilding Trading in charge of building the second vessel. Unconfirmed media reports indicate that the orderbook was increased to five ships back in May this year.
