HD Hyundai Heavy Industries disclosed on 8 May that it had secured an order for six container ships from an unnamed Asian shipping company, with deliveries scheduled through September 2029.
Shipbroking and market sources have linked Ocean Network Express (ONE) to the contract. When approached by Riviera, the company declined to comment on market speculation or third-party disclosures.
The deal is estimated at around US$1.2Bn, implying a unit price of approximately US$203M per vessel. This suggests the ships are likely to be in the 13,000+ TEU segment.
