Singapore’s Pacific International Lines (PIL) has confirmed an order for four 14,000-teu LNG dual-fuel container ships in China.

And the company said the vessels will also be prepared for ammonia propulsion.

Jiangnan Shipyard will build the ships for delivery from the second half of 2024 through to the first six months of 2025.

The units will run on LNG and low-sulphur diesel initially.
