Cosco Shipping Specialized Carriers has announced that the company has decided to execute the option to construct one more 62,000 dwt pulp carrier at Cosco Dalian Shipyard.

Cosco Shipping Specialized Carriers signed the original contract for two 62,000 dwt pulp carriers at the shipyard at the end of August, after it entered into a COA contract with Brazilian pulp exporter Suzano Group in March.

The price for each vessel is RMB222m ($33.7m) and all the three vessels are scheduled to be delivered in 2019.
