The two vessels, Ocean Express and Ocean Navigator, have been built by China Merchants Jinling Shipyard (Jiangsu) and offer a cargo capacity of 7,400 CEU across 13 cargo decks.

The vessels can carry cargo, including passenger vehicles, heavy commercial trucks, high-clearance SUVs, rolling machinery, and oversized project cargo.

Earlier this year, Sallaum Lines took delivery of Ocean Legacy, an LNG dual-fuel PCTC with the same cargo capacity as the latest two carriers.
