South Korean logistics company Hyundai Glovis, part of the Hyundai Motor Group, has ordered six 10,800 CEU LNG dual-fuel pure car and truck carriers (PCTCs) in China.
The shipbuilding contract was signed with Guangzhou Shipyard International (GSI), part of China State Shipbuilding Corporation (CSSC), in mid-May 2024.
The vessel type was jointly developed and designed by GSI and Shanghai Ship Design Institute and is said to be “the world’s largest” dual-fuel car carrier.
The six-ship order is part of a batch of 10,000 CEU dual-fuel car carriers to be built by GSI and operated by Hyundai Glovis.
