By sustained innovation and breakthrough development, SWS recently successfully completed the development of the 6th generation Capesize Bulk Carrier which is 180,000 DWT with the characteristics of green, environment-friendly.Recently, the two famous Shipping companies from Europe were attracted and signed the totally number of 6 plus 4 new build contracts with SWS, which made them to be the pioneer buyers of the 6th generation Capesize Bulk Carrier. These contracts highlighted the downturn shipping marketing, which marks SWS continuously take the lead role of the Bulk Carries' tech-innovation and generation upgrading, and maintains the ability to influence the market price.
The upcoming 180 thousand DWT Capesize Bulk Carriers adopts the design of non-bulbous bow. To decreased the residual resistance of bow, SWS has experimented with lines optimization and multiple scheme appendage energy-saving research to prove that the vessel without bulbous bow will be the best performance of the speed, maximum displacement and most economic. Besides that, this new developed vessel equips new types of Electronic Fuel Injection M/E. which reduce the M/E rotation rate with its longer stroke to achieve the energy-saving results. Up to its equipped and optimal design for lines, propulsion machinery and appendage energy-saving units, the new design ultimately not only reduces fuel comsumption by 10 percent, promote transport efficiency by 30 percent, but also takes all kinds of technology indicators toin line with the new requirements of CSR by IACS, PSPC by IMO, MARPOL VI, Tier II of NOx and etc. So, it is no doubt to become a worthy of green, low carbon, economic and super large Capesize Bulk Carrier.
SWS adheres to pursuing new and change, keeping pace with trends, fully meeting the needs of ship-owner, as well as to offering green, environment-friendly and low carbon vessel. That's the reason why Capesize Bulk Carrier be enduring and revitalized. The first vessel introduced to the shipping market is the first generation Capeszie—175,000 DWT Bulk Carrier since SWS was founded in 1999. The major innovation of this kind of vessel was that it was the first time to arrange fuel oil tanks and lubricating oil tanks at topside wing tanks all with cofferdam at ship's sides, There were no longer fuel oil tanks setting on the double bottom of the cargo tanks and engineering room. A series of innovative design changed traditional shipbuilding concept. With the successful research of this type of vessel, it filled a big gap in Chinese Bulk Carrier building. Especiallythe green shipbuilding concept received widely attention and favor in the world shipping industry. Furthermore, the climax of green shipbuilding spread to the world.
Constantly Striving for Perfection, SWS Create Excellent Vessels In accordance with the trend of world shipbuilding development and new regulation, SWS had successfully researched the second generation of Capesize Bulk Carrier—177,000 DWT, the third generation --176 ,000 DWT, the fourth generation—206,000 DWT , the fifth generation--208 ,000 DWT and the latest six generation—180,000 DWT. The above mentioned products are all self-designed and researched on the basis of the first generation of Capesize Bulk Carrier-175,000 DWT. A series of Capesize products consolidated SWS to be recognized as Capesize Bulk Carrier design, research and construction center in the world.
China-made "Capeszie" has become a famous world brand by over decade's well-polish. By the statistics, so far SWS has taken 180 Capesize orders and 100 of them were delivered which occupied -40% of the world and ranks top of the world. SWS made Capesize Bulk Carrier has become "the best China export brand" by its most and biggest market share. It created a legend from "Made in China" to "Created in China".
