NYK Line confirms Jinling LNG quartet
Ro-roNYK Line has confirmed an order for four LNG-powered 7,000-CEU PCTCs at China Merchants’ Jinling Shipyard.
The 199.9m long by 28.0m beam vessels will be very similar to the SAKURA LEADER, delivered at the end of 2020 from Shin Kurushima Toyohashi Shipbuilding. A major upgrade will be in the use of WinGD's 8X52-DF2.0 iCER main engine which, by using exhaust gas recirculation, both reduces gas consumption and halves the methane slip. The vessels will be delivered in 2022-3.
