German ship owner Nordic Hamburg has ordered four dual-fuel containerships with the option of another four included.
The 1,400 TEU ships have been ordered from Chinese shipbuilder Huangpu Wenchong Shipyard and the contract was signed in Helsinki, Finland.
These containerships will be chartered by Containerships Ltd Oy with Arkon acting as the commercial manager and the charter broker.
China State Shipbuilding Corporation (CSSC) Shipping will provide financial leasing for the vessels.
Previously Nordic Hamburg had placed the order with the Yangzhou Guoyu Shipyard in 2014 but this was cancelled and the order was placed instead with Huangpu Wenchong Shipyard.
The first four dual-fuel vessels are expected to be delivered during 2018.
