Elbdeich lifts Wenchong boxship series

Energy News Beat

German owner Elbdeich Reederei has firmed up orders for two more containerships at Huangpu Wenchong in China.

Brokers report the Drochtersen-based company has lifted options for a pair of 1,900 teu newbuilds it held at the CSSC-affiliated yard, following a deal for two firm units earlier this year.

The ships cost about $32.3m each with deliveries scheduled throughout 2027.

Elbdeich counts more than 30 ships in its fleet. The company also has 1.300 teu methanol dual-fuel newbuilds booked at Wenchong for delivery in 2026. The order is backed by DP World-controlled feeder operator Unifeeder.
