MSC Mediterranean Shipping Company has resumed its massive secondhand buying spree as vessels available for charter become harder to find.
The Swiss-liner giant is paying around $22m to acquire the 6,078-teu Lisbon (built 2003) from German shipowners, according to European brokers.
The 20-year-old vessel has been under technical management with Germany’s NSB Group and is reported sold ahead of its fourth special survey.
