Honghua lands six
Chinese shipbuilder Honghua Offshore has announced a “significant” new order for six ships.
The Hong Kong-listed Jiangsu company said the contract with Korea’s UDIN Engineering is worth more than $200m.
It did not give details of the vessels, but Asian reports said they were tankers, with the price of more than $33m each suggesting MRs.
The rig specialist's only previously reported ship order was two platform supply vessels for an unknown owner in 2012. These are due this month.
