On the 26th of September, COSCO Nantong Shipyard smoothly hoisted and erected the F31PS and F32C blocks of the bow section for the first 59K shuttle tanker. This vessel has been taking shape and getting ready for launching.

The success of this erection was contributed to by our rich experience in construction technology gained during the construction of the second 59K shuttle tanker, which has now reached the equipment installation and commissioning stage.
