On December 9th at 9:08 AM, the tenth 5300 TEU container ship "ZIM ALBATROSS" (CHB2015) built by Changhong International for the Greek shipowner NAVIOS MARITIME PARTNERS L.P. completed the online signing and delivery through video connection in the company's multimedia conference room at Gate 6.

Representatives present included Ms. Alexandra Kontaxi from NAVIOS, Captain Antonatos Nikolaos from the maritime department, Mr. Max Zhang representing the bank, Mr. Andreas Makroglou, the site office manager from ADK supervision company, Mr. Dai Yueming, the regional manager from DNV Zhoushan, Mr. Shen Zhihua, the general manager of the company’s shipbuilding, Mr. Liu Ming, the deputy general manager, and relevant leaders who witnessed the ship delivery both online and offline. Thus, the project of 10 ships of 5300 TEU container ships has reached a perfect conclusion.

This series of 5300 TEU container ships is the first project of cooperation between Changhong International and NAVIOS, with a total length of approximately 237.8 meters, a beam of 38.8 meters, and a depth of 21.8 meters, classified by DNV. The ship design boldly breaks through the limitations of traditional container ships' narrow shapes, adopting an innovative wide-body concept to optimize the hull form, equipped with efficient and energy-saving low-power main engines, with fuel consumption and EEDI energy consumption index more than 30% below the baseline index, meeting phase 3 requirements. This series is equipped with a 2.5-layer lashing bridge, capable of carrying 3845 14T containers, which is 145-345 more slots than other designs of the same type, equipped with 1000 reefer sockets, capable of simultaneously carrying 750 reefers, and equipped with ultra-low sulfur oil systems, AMP, SCR, and BWMS, fully demonstrating its green and environmentally friendly navigation concept.

During the construction period, the Changhong International shipbuilding team did not forget their responsibilities and mission, ensuring the high-quality and timely delivery of the ship with excellent work style, solid technical skills, and efficient service processes, receiving high recognition from the shipowner and ship inspection, laying a solid foundation for the subsequent LR2 product oil tanker project between both parties.
"ZIM ALBATROSS" will set sail on December 10th, with its maiden voyage destination being Cai Mep Port in Vietnam.
