Korea Shipbuilding & Offshore Engineering Co. (KSOE) said Monday that it has signed a 208 billion won ($185.8 million) deal to build two crude-oil carriers.
Under the deal signed with a European company, Hyundai Samho Heavy Industries Co., a unit of KSOE, will build and deliver the 300,000-ton ships from the fourth quarter of 2022, the company said.
The deal has an option to construct one more same-sized crude-oil ship, KSOE said.
KSOE has won 11, or 42 percent, of 26 crude-oil carriers ordered globally so far this year. (Yonhap)
