Taiwan's Evergreen has placed orders for 14 LNG dual-fuel container vessels, splitting the contracts evenly between Guangzhou Shipyard International and Samsung Heavy Industries, reported Singapore's Splash 247.
The 14,000-TEU ships will cost about US$200 million each, totaling approximately US$2.8 billion. Deliveries are scheduled between 2028 and 2030, according to Greek broker Intermodal.
Evergreen is currently the world's seventh largest container carrier, with its fleet nearing the two million TEU mark for the first time.
Earlier this year, Evergreen ordered 11 LNG dual-fuel 24,000 TEU vessels, also split between GSI and South Korea's Hanwha Ocean.
