Germany’s RMS Projects is teaming up with Chinese partners to develop a series of up to 10 multipurpose (MPP) and heavylift newbuildings.

The Hamburg-based company will commercially manage a fleet of vessel to be built for logistics and energy equipment provider China International Marine Containers (CIMC).

The first of six 14,000-dwt units to be built at CIMC’s own facilities will be delivered in 2024.
