HONG KONG's Orient Overseas Container Line (OOCL), now a Cosco unit, has strengthened its fleet structure by introducing one more 24,188-TEU OOCL Felixstowe at the Dalian COSCO KHI Ship Engineering shipyard.
OOCL invited a number of distinguished guests, partners and customers to witness the important moment when the vessel was named by He Lijun.
"We ordered this series of ultra large container vessels not only to provide better services to our customers, but also to enhance our cost competitiveness and to seize the initiative for future development," said OOCL chief executive Yang Zhijian.
"I firmly believe that, with leadership from Cosco Shipping, support from all stakeholders and the power of synergy, OOCL will certainly reach new heights of creating greater value for customers, partners, shareholders, and indeed society at large," he said.
OOCL Felixstowe is the fourth eco-friendly 24,188-TEU vessel to be received by OOCL in a series of 12, and will be serving the Asia-Europe LL3 service with her three sister vessels.
The ships port rotation is: Shanghai, Xiamen, Nansha, Hong Kong, Yantian, Cai Mep, Singapore, Piraeus, Hamburg, Rotterdam, Zeebrugge, Valencia, Piraeus, Abu Dhabi, Singapore and back to Shanghai.
Orient Overseas Container Line and OOCL are trade names for Orient Overseas Container Line Limited ("OOCLL") and OOCL (Europe) Limited respectively and both are wholly-owned subsidiaries of Orient Overseas (International) Limited, a public company (0316) listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. Headquartered in Hong Kong, China, OOCL has 130 offices in more than 100 major cities.
