Hengli Heavy Industry, based on Changxing Island in Dalian, has booked eleven very large ammonia carrier (VLAC) construction contracts inside a single week, covering 88,000, 90,000 and 93,000 cubic metre specifications, according to the Liaoning provincial government. The yard credits in-house A-type liquid cargo tanks and dual-fuel main engines with keeping build schedules and costs under control while meeting cryogenic containment and safety requirements. The order surge gives the company the world’s largest VLAC backlog, a signal of rising demand for liquid ammonia transport and storage equipment.
