NOL Group finalises 12-ship order for Daewoo

The global shipping and logistic company now has a total of 12 vessels on its orders list with the addition of two 10,700-TEU vessels.

Neptune Orient Lines Group (NOL Group) on Monday finalized an order to build two new 10,700-TEU (twenty-foot-equivalent unit) container ships for delivery in 2012. These two vessels are part of a 12-ship order valued at US$1.2 billion to be built by Daewoo Shipbuilding & Marine Engineering Co., a release from NOL Group said.

NOL first announced the project on 21 July.

The two organizations signed a contract to construct the 10,700-TEU vessels in a ceremony on 16 August in Seoul.

NOL said it is investing in new vessels to meet future growth needs and to replace vessels with charter agreements that will expire in the next few years.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
