210,000-dwt ton capesize bulker "CAPE BROLGA" which had been under construction at Tsu shipyard of Japan Marine United Co Ltd has been delivered to Kawasaki Kisen Kaisha Ltd. She will be engaged in the carrying of iron ore and coal transport for JFE Steel Corporation under a long-term consecutive voyage charter contract.The vessel has been built by adopting the original energy-saving propulsion devices made by Japan Marine United Corporation and the vessel's accommodation which has consequently reduced the resistance of drag caused by oncoming wind. She is expected to reduce fuel consumption by these devices and low wind resistance accommodation, compared to conventional vessels and growing the obtainable deadweight. It is a state-of-the-art ship that gathers world-class technology among capesize bulk carriers.Additionally, in order to improve the resistance towards corrosion of the cargo holds of the vessel, a specific cargo hold corrosion-resistant steel (JFE-SIP0-CC) for coal developed by JFE Steel Corporation has been adopted.
