Immediately after the successful launch of the first 45,000 DWT cargo ship, Ha Long Shipyard proceeded with the signing of the launching minutes and keel-laying ceremony for the second 45,000DWT vessel.
Congratulating Ha Long Shipyard and Dong Bac Shipbuilding Industry Company on the successful launch, Mr. Ha highlighted the event as a significant milestone in the construction and completion process. He attributed this achievement to the expertise and dedication of the company’s technical staff and skilled workers, as well as the effective collaboration between the shipowner, classification society, suppliers, and partners.
“This also clearly demonstrates the shipowner’s confidence in Ha Long Shipyard, creating a positive ripple effect within the entire Vietnam Shipbuilding Industry Corporation with our clients. In fact, several units within the Corporation have secured multiple ship-building contracts, ensuring employment for our workers until the end of 2027,” emphasized Mr. Ha.
