Jinling Shipyard receives titanic bulker order

CSC Jinling Shipyard has officially signed a shipbuilding contract for four 64000dwt bulkers with Queensland Nickel Group which is wholly owned by Australian billionaire Clive Palmer.

Palmer formed a new shipping business, Asia Pacific Shipping Enterprises in May to service his Queensland Nickel Group's ore importation freight activities.

Jinling Shipyard said the four vessels will use new ship designs made for nickel ore transportation.

Another Palmer’s company, Blue Star Line, will build its Titanic II in Jinling Shipyard as well. [24/07/12]
