I see, hulls built by yard A, completed by yard B...

Here, though, Korean yards need to be careful not to outsource too much to China. Or probably they will now concentrate on LNG gas carriers, and darn the containers...

Thanks Vlad, but what I meant is that these yard will eventually built complete hulls which will be fitted out by Daewoo. This has been practice for the past 25 years in Europe.

Thanks, M.Trivizas! :)

Pieter, that would be a normal course of things, but not every block manufacturer who eventually expanded into a "full shipbuilding" survived this expansion. Maybe modesty is a quality that builders need to take care of more...

Cheers
