STX Offshore & Shipbuilding it tipped to come up top among South Korean shipbuilders in terms of the number of new orders in 2009.
In 2008, STX came in second after Hyundai Heavy Industries.
In 2009, STX received 23 vessel orders, worth a total of US$2.3 billion. The orderbook includes contracts for eight 400,000DWT VLOCs, ordered by sister company, STX Pan Ocean. The company has a further four vessel options, which are not included in the newbuild order book.
Other prominent South Korean builders in the top listing this year are Samsung Heavy Industries which secured a US$700 million contract to build an LNG-FPSO, and Daewoo Shipbuilding & Marine Engineering (DSME), which has contracts to build four 400,000DWT bulkers, two passenger vessels and one barge. DSME’s newbuild contracts are worth US$800 million.
Noticeably missing from the listing is last year’s number one, Hyundai Heavy Industries (HHI). HHI endured an extremely disappointing 2009, having received no orders for commercial vessels. The builder did, however, receive orders for ten defence vessels. The order is worth US$1 billion.
In other news, South Korean shipyards are back at the top of the global shipbuilding newbuild order ladder after a seven-month lapse. South Korean shipyards received the most number of new orders for vessels in November.
According to Clarkson Research Services, South Korean shipbuilders received a total of 716,097CGT worth of orders in November 2009.
Korea’s market share is now 71.7 percent compared with 25.6 percent (255,895CGT) from Chinese shipyards.
In November 2009, Sundong Shipbuilding & Marine Engineering won a two-bulker deal from a Japanese shipowner while 21st Century Shipbuilding inked two 3,200DWT oil tankers from the Philippines.
