Chinese inland shipping firm Hunan Shunda orders ultramax at New Dayang

After delivery in 2023, the vessel will be used for Yangtze River and domestic coastal shipping.

Hunan Shunda International Logistics, a Chinese inland shipping group, has signed a newbuilding contract with New Dayang Shipbuilding to construct a 59,900 dwt ultramax bulker.

Last year, Hunan Shunda became a shipowner after acquiring two ultramax bulkers of the same kind from New Dayang.
