We are thrilled to announce the delivery of the CSPC HORIZON, the world’s largest and most advanced multipurpose pulp carrier, designed by Shanghai Merchant Ship Design & Research Institute (SDARI) and built by Fujian Mawei Shipbuilding Co., Ltd. This 84,500DWT giant marks a groundbreaking achievement in China’s pursuit of excellence in high-end, specialized vessel construction.

Unmatched Capacity & Versatility:
With a total length of 225 meters, beam of 36 meters, and a deadweight of 85,000 tons, the CSPC HORIZON redefines efficiency. Its open, step-free cargo hold design ensures optimal loading for paper pulp, while its flexibility extends to transporting wind turbines, high-speed rail components, heavy machinery, and even refrigerated containers on deck.

Smart & Cost-Effective Innovation:
Advanced hull optimization, propeller design, and energy-saving configurations slash operational costs. Equipped with SDARI’s intelligent ship system and Digital Operation Support System (DOSS), it delivers next-gen smart shipping solutions tailored to owner needs.

Leading the Green Transition:
The vessel exceeds IMO’s EEDI Phase III requirements with 50% lower carbon emissions, supported by a high-pressure SCR system and open-loop scrubbers. Notably, it holds “methanol-ready” and “decarbonization-ready” class notations, paving the way for future fuel adaptability.
