File Image / Pixabay Multimodal logistics provider CLdN has ordered two 6,700 lane-metre RoRo vessels from South Korea ’s HD Hyundai Heavy Industries , with the ships set to be dual-fuel capable for conventional marine fuels and LNG. Construction is expected to begin in early 2028 , with deliveries scheduled for mid-2029 , the firm said in an announcement on Tuesday . The vessels will feature an additional deck and increased cargo space compared with CLdN’s existing 5,000 lane-metre ships. Their higher capacity is expected to deliver 30-40% better fuel efficiency per tonne-kilometre. The ships will also have space reserved for larger electric shaft generators and batteries as the technology develops. They will be the 15th and 16th vessels CLdN has ordered from HD Hyundai HI over the past decade. LNG is seen as a more mature alternative marine fuel and is more widely available compared to other fuels such as methanol. While it emits less CO2 than conventional fuels, methane slip - involving a potent greenhouse gas - undermines part of the fuel's green credentials. Some shipowners are looking towards cleaner bio-LNG as an alternative, as it can be used in existing LNG-fuelled ships and delivers higher net GHG savings.
