CSR bulk ship
PA Sydney The CSR, Ltd, subsidiary, Austocean Pty, Ltd, has ordered a 23,500 deadweight tonne bulk carrier from Hyundai Heavy Industries, Co. Ltd, at Ulsan, in South Korea, for the Australia coastal and New Zealand bulk trade. CSR said that the singlescrew ship will be the first built in South Korea for an Australian owner for trading on the Australian coast, the company said. The price was not disclosed. “Australian yards were
invited to tender for construction of the ship but no offers were received,” CSR said. “However, some of the furniture, galley equipment and some fireproof panels will be provided from Australian manufacturers for use in the construction.” Construction is expected to begin in October, with a scheduled arrival in Australia in August or September, 1984. Specifications include a service speed of 14 knots, a length of 168 metres and a breadth of 24.3 metres.
