SEASPAN Corporation has named and commissioned two new liquefied natural gas (LNG) fuelled containerships, chartered to Israeli carrier Zim, during a ceremony at Samsung Heavy Industries in South Korea.
The newly built Zim Mount Everest and Zim Mount Blanc are the second and third 15,000 TEU LNG-powered vessels in a series of 10 vessels being built for Seaspan Corporation for long term charters to Zim.
Both vessels will join the Zim Sammy Ofer, delivered in February 2023, as the first LNG containerships to call at the US east coast.
The neopanamax vessels are 366-metres long with a 51-metre beam. The vessels have a maximum service speed of 22.5 knots, a dual-fuel main engine with output of 46,000kW at 80 rpm, and an energy efficiency design index to meet the tightened emission standards in the future, reports New York's MarineLink.
