Brazil’s OSX, which is building the Southern Hemisphere’s largest shipyard, said on Monday that it won a $732 million contract to build 11 oil and fuels tankers for the Brazil unit of London-based Kingfish Trading. The order boosts the value of contracts for OSX’s shipyard to $5.8 billion. The yard is under construction at the Port of Acu north of Rio de Janeiro in partnership with Korea’s Hyundai. OSX expects to start building its first ship in the first quarter of 2013.
