It's exclusive of owner-furnished equipment.

According to a release, Cosco referred to its announcement of 28 January 2013 captioned "two shipbuilding contracts become effective" and clarified that the value of US$54 million cited in paragraphs 1 and 3 of the said announcement excludes owner-furnished equipment for the two PX121 Platform Supply Vessels.

Here's the content of the said announcement dated 28 January:

The Board of Directors of COSCO Corporation (Singapore) Limited (the “Company”) is pleased to announce that two shipbuilding contracts signed by COSCO (Guangdong) Shipyard Co., Ltd, a subsidiary of the Company’s 51% owned subsidiary, COSCO Shipyard Group Co., Ltd, with a European ship owner for the construction of two (2) PX121 Platform Supply Vessels (PSVs) have been made effective on 28 January 2013 at a value of approximately US$54 million in total.

The Company will announce when the shipbuilding contracts under the option are declared effective.

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
