Launch of sister CHAUMINE
Launch of CLdN’s second G9 ro-ro LEONINE at Hyundai Mipo Dockyard
Ro-roLEONINE was launched at Hyundai Mipo Dockyard, the second of two G9 ro-ro vessels currently on order for CLdN at Hyundai Mipo Dockyard.
The 234-metre LEONINE will be equipped with two conventional main engines as well as two large shaft generators of 6 MW each, which can be used for generating power or for electric propulsion.
The vessels have a high degree of flexibility, allowing for a seamless integration of new fuels, fuel cells and/or battery technology in the future. Compared with CLdN’s largest vessels currently in operation (CELINE and DELPHINE), the new ships will further reduce CO2 emissions by 40% while having the same cargo capacity.
The delivery of LEONINE and sister CHAUMINE is scheduled for the first half of 2025.
