CSSC Huangpu Wenchong Shipbuilding, in partnership with CSTC, signed a contract with China United Lines (CULines) on 28 Apr 2026 for four 6,400 TEU container vessels. The ships, designed by MARIC, will measure 240 meters in length and 42.8 meters in width, featuring 1,150 reefer plugs
and fuel-efficient technologies including a twisted rudder, rudder bulb, energy-saving ducts, shaft generator, and shore-power readiness. These vessels are optimized for routes in Asia, the US West Coast, the Red Sea, East Africa, and the East Mediterranean. This order follows CULines’ previous acquisition of four 1,900 TEU and two 2,700 TEU ships from Huangpu Wenchong, which have become core fleet units. The repeat order underscores the strategic partnership and Huangpu Wenchong’s position in the medium and small container ship market. The shipbuilder continues to focus on green and smart vessel development.
