On November 13th, the naming ceremony for the 64,000 deadweight ton bulk carrier “Metis Stellar” (DE163), built by Dalian COSCO SHIPPING Kawasaki for Danish shipping company NORDEN, was successfully held. As the fifth high-end bulk carrier of the same type under the cooperative framework of both parties, the successful naming of this vessel marks another significant achievement in their in-depth cooperation in the fields of green shipbuilding and intelligent shipping.
At the ceremony, the godmother, Ms. Andreani Limperopoulou, named the DE163 the “Metis Stellar” and cut the rope. After the naming and delivery, the vessel will set sail fully loaded with blessings, embarking on a safe and smooth ocean journey.
The “Metis Stellar” inherits the core advantages in green environmental protection and intelligent technology of this series of bulk carriers. The vessel is equipped with advanced energy-saving, environmental protection technologies, and intelligent systems, and has received full market recognition in terms of energy efficiency indicators, carbon emission control, and operational economy. The shipowner highly praised Dalian COSCO SHIPPING Kawasaki’s construction quality and professionalism, believing that the addition of this vessel will further enhance the market competitiveness of the NORDEN fleet and provide customers with higher quality and more efficient transportation services.
Looking to the future, Dalian COSCO SHIPPING Kawasaki will continue to uphold the mission of “building a world-class shipyard and constructing world-class ships,” forging ahead on the path of green, digital, and intelligent transformation, and continuously contributing wisdom and strength to the prosperity and development of the global shipping industry!
