PIL Container Vessels
Pacific International Lines (PIL) has ordered five more 9,000-TEU dual-fuel LNG container vessels.
The vessels will be built by one of China’s leading shipbuilders, Hudong-Zhonghua Shipbuilding (Hudong-Zhonghua), with deliveries scheduled for 2027 and 2028.
Earlier this year, PIL ordered five 13,000-TEU LNG dual-fuel containerships from Hudong-Zhonghua. Similar to previous orders, these new vessels will be equipped with the latest digital technologies including AI and the Internet of Things (IoT) for real-time monitoring and automation.
The new 9,000-TEU vessels are designed with highly optimized cargo handling features, which will significantly enhance PIL’s service capabilities. They will feature energy-saving features such as a streamlined hull-form, variable-frequency drive motors, shaft generators, lower-energy LED lightings and superior hull coatings.
“With 18 newbuild vessels ordered in the last couple of years, PIL is demonstrating our commitment to renew, expand and modernise our fleet,” said Lars Kastrup, CEO of PIL. “Our aim is to replace up to half our fleet in the next decade with modern new ships and charters. These ships are a significant step towards our green shipping goal of achieving net zero emissions by 2050, while increasing operational and cost efficiencies, improving services to our customers as well as enhancing the welfare of our crew.”
With this latest order, PIL will have a total of 18 newbuildings on order since 2022. This includes four 14,000 TEU vessels, four 8,000 TEU vessels, five 13,000 TEU vessels and five 9,000 TEU vessels. Two of the 14,000 TEU vessels, Kota Eagle and Kota Emerald, were christened at a ceremony on October 15, 2024. PIL took delivery of Kota Eagle, which began its maiden voyage on the West Coast Service 2 service to Central and South America in late October 2024.
