NYK orders 8 container ships
NYK announced it has ordered eight new 14,000-TEU container ships to be delivered between 2016 and 2018. The company said it had signed charter arrangements for the new vessels, but did not reveal the company behind the order or the amount.
The shipping line said Japan Marine United would construct them and that they were slotted for use on the Asia-Europe trades as replacements for existing ships, including four 13,000-TEU ships chartered from Orient Overseas Container Line.
