The order for seven 10,000 TEU container vessels plus 18 options which was signed in Shanghai on 8 June is the biggest ever container contract entered into in China. The vessels will be built to DNV class. CSSC-MES Diesel will supply the world’s most advanced environment-friendly diesel engines to 25 container carriers. The engines are environment-friendly and intellectual diesel engines with the largest power that domestic companies can manufacture.
