PaxOcean Zhoushan has delivered Martta, the last in the series of three 150 by 27 metres, 1A Ice Class, 1,200-TEU (290 reefer plugs) container ships for the shipping company from the Finnish Piikkiö.
Each vessel is equipped with a hybrid scrubber system developed by the sister firm Langh Tech, which is also ready for installing an onboard carbon capture system (also made by Langh Tech and said to deliver proven CO2-emission reduction of up to 50%).
Martta's sisters, Ingrid and Lene, were delivered earlier this year.
"By commissioning a full series with integrated scrubber and carbon capture systems, Langh Ship demonstrates how owners can move beyond compliance and take decisive steps toward net zero," Langh Ship underscored in a press release.
The company's CEO, Laura Langh-Lagerlöf, added, "With this vessel series, we had a vision of pushing the energy efficiency and emission reduction further than before. PaxOcean Shipyard has been a valuable partner in achieving this, their ship-building expertise resulting in technologically advanced vessels that make an outstanding addition to our fleet. We are pleased to now have all three vessels soon in operation."
Tan Thai Yong, Managing Director & CEO of the PaxOcean Group, also commented, "The completion of this series reflects more than shipbuilding success. It shows that when owners commit to decarbonisation, PaxOcean can be a trusted partner to turn ambition into operational reality. Our teams in Zhoushan are proud to support Langh Ship in this important journey."
