MSC going for more mid-haul units


The Mediterranean Shipping Company (MSC), the carrier with the highest maritime container capacity worldwide as of January 2022, is banking on more newbuilds.

 

According to press reports, fourteen new 7,000 teu units have been ordered on Chinese wharfs, an investment of almost USD 1.7 billion.

 

The newbuilds are expected to be delivered between 2024 and 2025. Vessels with a capacity of 7,000 teu to 8,000 teu tend to be deployed in mid-haul trades, replacing units with less capacity. (sh)
