JE Ocean Heavy Industries, a new corporation established by Eco Prime Marine Pacific, has secured 10 tanker orders ahead of the Gunsan Shipyard's revival. The company has signed letters of intent with a shipowner in Oceania for two 157,000-ton crude oil carriers and four 114,000-ton crude and petrochemical product carriers. Additionally, JE Ocean Heavy Industries had previously secured four 114,000-ton crude and petrochemical product carriers in June.
The company attributes this success to the Gunsan Shipyard's track record in building very large ships and its delivery competitiveness. JE Ocean Heavy Industries plans to complete the acquisition of the Gunsan Shipyard by the end of the year and commence shipbuilding work after facility maintenance and equipment reinforcement.
