The rotation will be, Ningbo - Shanghai - Yantian - Tanjung Pelepas - Port Kelang - Le Havre - Hamburg - Rotterdam - Zeebrügge - Port Kelang - Singapore - Ningbo, in cooperation with CMA CGM.
Facts.
Length (oa): 366 m
Length (bp): 350 m
Beam: 48.2 m
Depth: 29.85 m
Design draft: 14.5 m
Scantling draft: 15.5 m
Deadweight: 125,480 mt at 14 .5m,140,580 mt at 15.5 m
Containers are carried 17-wide below deck and 19-wide on the hatchcovers. The maximum capacity of each ship is 7,074TEU on deck and 6,018TEU below deck, making 13,092TEU in total. Based on a homogeneous container weight of 14 tonnes per TEU, the maximum capacity is approximately 9,080TEU. Reefer plugs are available for 800 x 40ft containers.
Each ship is powered by a single Hyundai-Wartsilae] 12RT-flex96C main engine weighing over 2,000 tonnes and developing 68,640 kW (MCR) at 102 rpm and 61,776 kW (NCR) at 98.5rpm. Five 2,700kw diesel generators are installed.
Although designed for a service speed of 24.3 knots, the flex-engines still achieve 21.5 knots at 60 percent of the engine's normal output but can also slow steam as required under charterers' current service patterns, generating substantial fuel savings. By having this substantial speed reserve, the ships can increase speed when necessary to maintain schedule integrity.
