Vessel deliveries continue despite the capacity glut

摘要

Several major container shipping lines have taken delivery of additional vessels that will further add capacity to a global fleet that has grown so rapidly that some owners/operators have been forced to lay up ships until demand returns.rnJapanese shipping company "K" Line, which took delivery of a vessel in March, is soon expected to take delivery of the second unit in a series of ten 4,600TEU vessels ordered.rnThe vessel will be called the 'Ankara Bridge', and is expected to join the carrier's PNW service, which is operated by the CKYH Alliance of container shipping lines.
