On April 19, Dajin Heavy Industry’s Panjin Offshore Engineering Base successfully launched its second large deck transport vessel, the 40,000 DWT “KING TWO”. This vessel, built at the Panjin base, follows the successful maiden voyage of its first vessel of the same type, “KING ONE”, which fully validated the vessel’s sailing performance and reliability, demonstrating the company’s strong technical capabilities and outstanding construction skills in the field of large, high-end shipbuilding.
Designed and built entirely in-house by Dajin, KING TWO measures 239.8m in length, 51m in breadth, and 13m in depth, with a deck area of 12,000 sqm. Its flexible design makes it ideally suited for transporting offshore wind components, including monopiles, Jacket, floating foundations, and large offshore engineering modules.
It is reported that the Panjin Base, one of Dajin Heavy Industry’s three major marine engineering bases in the Bohai Bay area, focuses on high value-added products such as large deck transport vessels, semi-submersible vessels, and heavy-lift vessels.
Currently, the construction of several vessels on the slipway is progressing smoothly, and the delivery pace is steadily accelerating. In addition to the “KING TWO” launched this time, the third vessel in the KING series will also be launched in May this year, and both vessels will officially enter service within the year. With the rapid formation of its high-end special-purpose vessel fleet, Dajin Heavy Industry is steadily building a world-leading marine engineering equipment construction and service system according to its established strategic pace, striving to become a key force driving the global deep-sea energy transformation.
