IMABARI Shipbuilding, one of the biggest vessel construction players in Japan, has marked the delivery of a 13,000 TEU future-proof containership, which was built for Singapore-based shipping company Ocean Network Express (ONE).
The ONE Sapphire was handed over on June 12 during a ceremony held at Imabari Shipbuilding's Marugame yard in Kagawa, Japan, reports Rotterdam's Offshore Energy.
The box ship features an overall length of 335.94 metres, a width of 51 metres and a depth of 30.1 metres.
According to Imabari Shipbuilding, the 140,233 GT newbuild was designed for future conversion to run on methanol and ammonia. What is more, the vessel is said to be ready to be installed with carbon capture equipment.
ONE Sapphire is also described as having been engineered with energy/fuel efficiency in mind.
To this end, it was reportedly outfitted with a suite of solutions, including energy-saving devices and twisted rudders. The unit was also equipped with a hybrid exhaust gas cleaning system (EGCS) as well as an exhaust gas recirculation system (EGR).
Other environmental conservation measures include a ballast water treatment system and an inventory list based on the Hong Kong International Convention for the safe and environmentally sound recycling of ships (otherwise known as the Hong Kong Convention).
As a result, ONE Sapphire is anticipated to achieve a reduction in carbon dioxide emissions of around 60 per cent, officials from Imabari Shipbuilding have shared.
