LPG/ammonia carriers getting built by HP shipyard. China has really moved into these new fuel ships and fuel carrying ships.
first methanol dual fuel ship using all domestic methanol engine, generator and core components have been delivered to COSCO Shipping.
world's largest ever LNG dual fuel PCTC has been delivered to BYD.

General
Adora Flower City has been floated.
The boiler system of the Adora Flower City has been fired up for the first time. Note the boilers are not for propulsion but are for onboard heating, providing hot water, and so on.
Is there any evidence of the US port tax on Chinese-built vessels having an effect on the shipbuilding industry in China?
You could try checking the previous page before asking.

Were those April orders before or after the US port fees came into effect? after

Simulation models of floating nuclear power plants from academic paper(s). Posted by SOYO on Weibo.
Some comments from SOYO:
- These are old models, which has been around for 6 or 7 years.
- The reactor pressure vessel is a real big cylinder.
- This is the civilian nuclear power platform with the most publicly-available details. Since the platform is equipped with a large cylinder with a diameter of 17 meters - In other words, it indirectly confirms the military ship usage characteristics of the square box (reactor housing/containment structure).
TL; DR - It is almost certain that the unknown ship currently under construction at that particular drydock at Dalian is a military warship.

Two more.
Also, a correction on this statement from SOYO:
This isn't necessarily true. The above illustration from certain academic paper does show that the reactor housing/containment structure of certain nuclear-powered icebreaker design can be box-shaped (Whether that be based on actual plans or only placeholder models for simulation purposes only).
