Chinese shipbuilder Jiangnan has delivered the 15,000-teu LNG-powered containership, CMA CGM Cape Cod, to French shipping giant CMA CGM.

The shipbuilder announced the delivery of the 336 meters long and 51 meters wide vessel in a statement issued on April 11.

This is the second of six 15,000-teu LNG-powered containerships Jiangnan built for French shipping giant CMA CGM.

Jiangnan launched CMA CGM Cod in October last year, while a naming ceremony took place on March 28, 2024.

Also, the new LNG-powered vessels feature GTT’s Mark III containment system and WinGD’s dual-fuel propulsion.

The vessel’s LNG tanks have a capacity of 14,000 cbm.
