TAIWAN'S Wan Hai Lines held ship naming ceremonies for three eco-friendly containerships, each with a capacity of 3.013 TEU at Japan Marine United Corporation Kure Shipyard.
The vessels WAN HAI 355, WAN HAI 357 and WAN HAI 360 were built at the Japanese shipyard, taking energy efficiency and environmentally-friendly aspects into account.
The box ships are equipped with full balanced twisted bulb rudders, pre-swirl fin and AMP (Alternative Maritime Power) system. Besides, all the ships delivered are certified with "Smart Ship" notations and meet the level of requirement for NOx Tier III.
The WAN HAI 355 will be deployed in Asia America service.
"These new vessels are part of Wan Hai Lines efforts to ensure their continuous pursuit of fleet upgrade in order to provide the best quality service to customers," the shipping line said in a statement.
In addition to naming the newbuildings, Wan Hai also made a charity donation of necessities to three charitable units; they are two private orphanages in Hiroshima, and an elderly nursing home in Kure city.
The shipping line said the charity donations represent part of Wan Hai Lines' motto: "We carry, we care.", as the company is committed to fulfill its corporate social responsibility, providing quality service to customers and bringing love to the society.
