Enesel Group Orders First Newcastlemax Bulk Carrier

for long-haul iron ore and coal trades, particularly those calling at Newcastle, Australia. The move reflects a broader push by the company to grow its presence in the dry bulk sector. Hengli Heavy Industries, the Chinese shipbuilder selected for the contract, has been expanding its orderbook among international owners in recent years as demand for large bulk carriers has grown. Details on the vessel's specific technical specifications, contract value and any options for additional newbuildings were not disclosed. The order underscores continued investment by established Greek shipowning families in newbuilding capacity amid steady demand for dry bulk tonnage. Further details on Enesel Group's fleet expansion plans are expected as the 2028 delivery date approaches.
