Description
MSC Oscar was recognised as the largest container ship in the world, built by Daewoo in South Korea for US$140m. MSC Oscar takes her name from the son of Diego Aponte, the president and chief executive of owner Mediterranean Shipping Company (MSC).
The ship was first planned for 18,400 TEU. Upon completion of construction the capacity was 19,224 TEU, including the capacity for 1,800 refrigerated containers. As the deadweight tonnage of the ship is 197,362 DWT, she can only carry a full load of containers if each has a mean weight not exceeding 10.2 tonnes. With average 14-tonne containers, the capacity is around 14,000 TEU.
The vessel’s main engine is a two-stroke MAN Diesel 11S90ME-C diesel engine, which has a height of 15.5 m (51 ft), a length of 25 m (82 ft) and a breadth of 11 m (36 ft). The engine has a maximum continuous rating of 62.5 MW (83,800 hp) at 82.2 rpm and a normal continuous rating of 56.25 MW (75,430 hp) at 79.4 rpm.
MSC Oacar has 4 sister ships: MSC Zoe, MSC Oliver,MSC Maya, and MSC Sveva. Please contact us if you want to commissioning.
