World's Largest Bulk Carrier to Container Ship Conversion Completed in China
The world’s largest bulk carrier-to-container ship conversion has been completed in China, transforming the 80,000 dwt Kuang Chi Delta into a 3,600 TEU containership. China Classification Society (CCS) inspected and certified the six-month refit at Zhoushan Xinya Shipbuilding & Repair. At least two more Diamond 53 supramax bulk carriers are slated for conversion to around 2,500 TEU, reflecting tight container market conditions.
