CSL doubles new-vessel order

摘要

Canada Steamship Lines (CSL) is exercising its option for the building of two new self-unloading vessels, bringing to four the number of ships on order in its major fleet-renewal programme. The Montreal-based Great Lakes-Seaway carrier has two self-unloading Lakers currently under construction at Chengxi Shipyard in Jiangyin, China, scheduled for delivery in late 2012. The newly announced vessels will enter service in the spring of 2013. CSL has also indicated that it has options for four additional vessels for delivery during 2013.
