3/23/2013 10:01:25 AM

SOUTH Korea's Hanjin Shipping is to upgrade its 7,500 TEU ships to 10,000 TEU following its the assignment of its 10,114-TEU Hanjin Germany in January this year on the FE-USWC PSX service, increasing the route's average capacity by 25 per cent. This will replace its remaining vessels of 7,471 TEU with the 9,950-TEU range Hanjin Spain, Hanjin Korean and Hanjin Netherlands and the 10,114-TEU Hanjin Greece in May. The final and sixth vessel of the 8,596-TEU Hanjin Seattle is due to be replaced at a later date. These 10,000-TEU scale vessels were displaced from the FE-Europe trade with newbuildings in the 13,000 TEU range, according to a report from Paris-based Alphaliner. Asian Shipper News
