On June 20 at 20:48, the 9th 5300 TEU container ship CHB2026 built by Zhoushan Changhong International for the Greek shipowner NAVIOS MARITIME PARTNERS L.P. was smoothly connected to the floating dock, marking the successful completion of the launch milestone for the vessel. After the launch, the ship will enter the dock for the overall lifting of the superstructure and subsequent outfitting work at the terminal.

The shipowner's on-site office team, representatives from DNV GL, and senior leaders from the company witnessed the launch of the vessel together, reflecting the high attention and seamless collaboration from all parties involved in the project.
The ship has a total length of approximately 237.8 meters, a beam of 38.8 meters, and a depth of 21.8 meters, and is classified by DNV GL. The design concept of the ship overturns the traditional long and narrow design of container ships, optimizing the hull shape with a wide-body concept, equipped with an optimized low-power main engine, low fuel consumption, and an EEDI energy consumption index that is 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 14-ton containers, which is 145-345 more container slots compared to other designs of the same type. It is equipped with 1000 reefer plug sockets, allowing for the simultaneous loading of 750 reefers, and features a low-sulfur oil system, AMP, SCR, and BWMS, making it environmentally friendly and compliant with the latest regulations.
There are a total of 10 ships of the same type, of which 4 have been delivered for use.
