Yangzijiang Shipbuilding bags container feeders contract for $77.75m

The design of these feeders will give priority to loading capacity over speed.

Yangzijiang Shipbuilding has inked a shipbuilding contract for four 1,000TEU container feeders worth a total of $77.75m (RMB392m), a press release revealed.

The container feeders measure 139.9 meters in length, 25 meters in width and eight meters in draft, which is said to take into consideration the water and shape conditions of several major ports in Zhejiang Province.

Compared to ocean liners, the design of these feeders will give priority to loading capacity over speed. With a maximum loading capacity of 15,000 tons, the 1,000TEU feeder significantly reduces fuel consumption per unit.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.


If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
