Chinese shipbuilding industry

lol, China has like the perfect ship for land reclamation projects. It's going to be funny to see what they can build in SCS with this.

China is going hard on Liquid CO2 carrier and Very Large Ammonia carrier production. Needed for the energy transition.

JiangNan signed a deal with Eastern Pacific shipping for 6 ULEC (ultra large ethane carrier), 150k cubic meter.

Looks to be ready to carry ethane, ethylene and LPG and is LNG ready.

They keep climbing up to top of shipbuilding value chain.

Reading it, seems pretty much the parallel move to the merger of CNR and CSR to (re-)form CRRC. As part of the economic reforms in the Hu Jintao-era, those state owned railway enterprises were formed into 2 units to provide domestic competition. Now as the competition is globalized and more international business is being pursued, they were merged. Sounds like the same kind of thing but for ships.

Another thing they should merge is the nuclear power sector. It makes no sense IMHO to have two nuclear companies in China. CNNC and CGNPG should be merged.

The CSSC has debuted a container ship design with a staggering 27500-TEU capacity - The largest ever - At SMM Hamburg lately.

At present, the largest container ship has a capacity of 24000+ TEU.

major LNG carrier win for HD, 6 271000 cubic meter carrier from Qatar.

Much bigger islands with big airports can be created quickly. Even reclaiming lands towards Taiwan is possible.
