A Green Behemoth Sets Sail: Nantong Haijing Powers the Successful Delivery of "MSC MARIA RENATA"

From May 24 to 25, 2026, the 10,300 TEU LNG dual-fuel container ship "MSC MARIA RENATA" (Hull No.: CHB2037) ,  built by Changhong International for Mediterranean
Shipping Company (MSC), held its grand naming and online delivery signing ceremonies in Zhoushan. The successful delivery of this new generation of eco-friendly, 10,000-box
-class container ship—completed a remarkable 159 days ahead of the contractual schedule—marks a major breakthrough in the high-end shipbuilding collaboration between the two parties. Behind this globally watched maritime milestone lies a local force from Nantong, Jiangsu: Nantong Haijing Ship Decoration Co., Ltd. As the general contractor for the ship's interior outfitting, the company delivered a perfect performance with exquisite craftsmanship and exceptional quality.   

On the morning of May 24, the naming ceremony was grandly held at Chang hong International's Pier No. 1. The ship's sponsor, Ms. Xu Feng, officially named the vessel "MSC MARIA RENATA," wishing it "smooth voyages and accomplished missions" in its future journeys. The following day, MSC and Chang hong International formally completed the delivery procedures via an online signing. Against the backdrop of highly efficient global shipping collaboration, the project achieved seamless docking and high-quality delivery through digital means.

The "MSC MARIA RENATA" not only adopts LNG dual-fuel main engines and generators equipped with a high-and-low pressure mixed gas supply system but also features forward-looking designs that are Ammonia-Ready and Methanol-Ready, paving the way for future carbon-neutral shipping. Equipped with the largest Type-C LNG fuel tanks in its class and an optimized hull line design, the vessel can cover a single round-trip on China-Europe or China-US routes under any operational mode.

Inside this advanced container ship, the Haijing team played a vital role. As a professional marine interior engineering service provider, the company undertook the general contracting task for the vessel's interior outfitting, leveraging its strong corporate strength and extensive engineering experience. From drawing refinement and material selection to meticulous on-site construction, the Nantong Haijing team overcame multiple challenges, including tight deadlines and high standards.

The early delivery of the "MSC MARIA RENATA" is not only the fruit of the strategic partnership between Changhong International and MSC but also another brilliant showcase of Nantong Haijing Ship Decoration Co., Ltd.'s technical prowess, contributing solid "Nantong Strength" to the low-carbon transformation of the global shipping industry.
