Hapag-Lloyd Plans Investment in 22 New Vessels as Part of Fleet Renewal Strategy
Hapag-Lloyd is accelerating its fleet modernization program with plans to invest in up to 22 new container ships in the feeder segment, aiming to replace older tonnage, reduce reliance on the charter market, and work toward its Net-Zero 2045 goal..webp)
Hapag-Lloyd is proceeding with a large-scale fleet renewal program, under which the German shipping giant will invest in approximately 22 new container vessels in the sub-5,000 TEU segment.
The Hamburg-based carrier stated that this move is part of a long-term strategy to modernize and decarbonize its fleet. The new units are expected to be a mix of owned vessels and long-term chartered vessels.
The company, led by Rolf Habben Jansen, describes this plan as a significant milestone on the path toward greater efficiency and the goal of achieving net-zero fleet operations by 2045.
Focus on Smaller Vessel Segments
This investment will target smaller vessel classes - a high-demand segment where Hapag-Lloyd aims to replace aging tonnage, reduce dependence on the charter market (which remains anchored at high rates), and cut operating costs through more fuel-efficient designs.
Market sources indicate the company has approached Chinese shipyards to build two series of vessels in the 3,100 TEU and 4,500 TEU ranges. Brokers suggest Hapag-Lloyd could split the order between Yantai Raffles and Taizhou Sanfu Shipyard. Indicative prices are reported to be around $70 million for the larger vessels and $60 million for the smaller ones.
If finalized, this move would boost Hapag-Lloyd's orderbook from 34 to as many as 56 vessels, including both owned and chartered newbuilds. As of the end of September, Hapag-Lloyd's fleet comprised 305 vessels with a total capacity of 2.5 million TEU, maintaining its position as the world's fifth-largest container carrier.
