On September 1st, the Delivery & Christening Ceremony for MV “V ALDO”, a 40,400 DWT bulk carrier (DJHC6118), built by Jiangsu Dajin Heavy Industry, for the Italian Owner “VISENTINI GIOVANNI TRASPORTI FLUVIOMARITTIMI SRL” was successfully completed.
The vessel, named “V ALDO”, is a 40,400 DWT ocean-going bulk carrier powered by a single propeller and a 5S50ME-C 9.7 – HPSCS diesel engine, compliant with IMO Tier III emission standards.
It’s the first of two new ships constructed by Jiangsu Dajin Heavy Industry for Giovanni Visentini Trasporti Fluviomarittimi, marking another significant milestone in the collaboration between the two parties.
