Shipyards see hope amid new orders
Print Edition
Though Chinese shipbuilding has yet to come in from the cold, recent restructuring, cuts in overcapacity and upgrades have given the troubled industry more hope, a report showed.
In 2013 the industry received new orders with deadweight tons of 70 million, up 242 percent year on year, according to a report posted by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology.
Altogether, 80 percent of these new orders went to the 20 industry leaders, the report said, up 5.5 percent on last year.
The industry had won orders for six liquefied natural gas carriers and four very large gas carriers, the report said.
But insiders believe the industry still faces a hard time as it grapples with a recession caused by waning demand and higher costs following the financial crisis of 2008. China has unveiled a slew of measures to encourage upgrading and mergers.
Zhang Guangqin, president of the China Association of the National Shipbuilding Industry, said it will take at least another five years for overcapacity to be eased.
