Its Cosco (Qidong) Offshore shipyard will build one floating accommodation unit (FAU) for a Singapore customer.

This is scheduled for delivery in the first quarter of 2017 and comes with options for five additional ships.

A European client has also declared an option at Cosco Dalian for a 21,000-dwt module-carrier vessel.

The ship was attached to an order from last September.

The new vessel is due in the second quarter of 2016.
