German shipping and logistics group CLI has contracted a multipurpose (MPP) newbuilding at Dutch yard Royal Bodewes.
The deal with an undisclosed value covers an 8,500 dwt unit that has been designed to feature advanced environmental and fuel efficiency technologies, including a methanol-ready main engine and an Eco Flettner rotor sail.
Founded in 2012, Hamburg-based CLI operates in the North Atlantic between Western Europe and Eastern Canada.
The newbuild will be deployed on the regular shipping route between Canada, the Netherlands and the UK.
According to Royal Bodewes, the vessel’s design will significantly boost operational efficiency, allowing for at least one additional transatlantic voyage per year compared to the ship currently serving the route.
Construction at the shipyard in Hoogezand is set to begin in October 2025, with delivery scheduled for the summer of 2026.
