South Korea’s Hyundai Mipo Dockyard (HMD) has secured orders for nine newbuildings worth KRW 704bn ($583m).
In a regulatory filing, Korea Shipbuilding & Offshore Engineering Co (KSOE) said the Ulsan-based shipyard has signed newbuilding contracts with four separate companies that are based in Europe and Oceania.
It did not disclose the identity of the buyers but said the contracts involved two LNG-fuelled roll-on/roll-off (ro ro) ships, six 2,800-teu container ships and one LNG bunker newbuilding.
