AAL Transport (AAL) has added an alternative two ships at CSSC Huangpu Wenchong Shipbuilding to its series of six 32,000 dwt heavylift Tremendous B-Elegance vessels.
The 2 alternative vessels, to be named AAL Newcastle and AAL Mumbai, will each and every component an larger most heavylift capacity of 800 tonnes, in comparison to the remains of the Tremendous B-Elegance fleet which is able to each and every raise a most 700 tonnes.
Those vessels will convey AAL’s general fleet tonnage to 831,800 dwt.
Christophe Grammare, managing director of AAL, stated: “Looking into the future, the trend in industrial project cargo is towards fabricating larger and more complex components, and we need to be ahead of that curve. The combination of these new ships’ unique design, cargo handling technologies and heavylift capabilities – which on the two additional vessels has increased to 800 tonnes maximum lift – allows them to also accommodate the far bigger and heavier cargoes of tomorrow, ones that until now may have been out of our reach.”
