To Daewoo Shipbuilding

Shipping Corporation of India

Ltd. has placed an order with Dae- woo Shipbuilding and Heavy Ma- chinery Ltd. Seoul, Korea, for eight bulk carriers with an option for four more, the shipbuilding com- pany president, Hong, In-Kie re- ported recently.

The U.S. $140-million contract for the 45,000-dwt vessels was signed in Bombay, India.

The vessels are 189 meters in length and have a beam of 30.4 meters, a depth of 16.4 meters, and a draft of 11.3 meters.

The ships will be delivered be- tween November 1985 and the middle of 1986. "Not including options accom- panying the orders, we have re- ceived orders for 32 bulk carriers in 1983. The orders are from Ma- laysia, Norway, Iran, and now, In- dia," said president Hong.

The Daewoo Group company is also filling orders for numerous other customers. Among the exist- ing orders are 12 containerships for U.S. Lines, five chemical tank- ers for Stolt-Nielsen of Norway, two RO/RO carriers for Benargus

A/S and Wilhelmsen Enterprise, both of Norway, a methanol car- rier for National Shipping Com- pany of Saudi Arabia, and four supply vessels for Essar Bulk Car- riers Ltd. of India.

Daewoo is also building several plants at its Okpo Shipyard as well as two drilling rigs. Of the plants, two gas-compression plat- forms are under construction—one is for ARAMCO, the other for Ku- wait Oil Company. Another plant under construction at Okpo is a linear low-density polyethylene plant for Al-Jubail Petrochemical

Company of Saudi Arabia. The construction of this plant has in- troduced the modular method of construction to Korea.
