Steel cutting first newbuild vessel A2B-online
Today was the day: the steel cutting of our first newbuild vessel, the A2B Vision. We’ve been eagerly looking forward to the steel cutting of our first newbuild vessel, the substantial part of the ship’s construction, the foundation of the construction! In the presence of colleagues, the festive ceremony took place at the shipyard in Turkey this morning (click here to see an impression of the ceremony).
Word of thanks
After the intensive period of preparation, we are delighted and proud to share this milestone with the world outside today. A word of thanks to all involved for their part in making this dream a reality, especially our investors, the Hamburg-based design and engineering company Technolog Services, our yard Sedef Shipyard in Turkey and all colleagues involved. Without their trust, commitment and expertise, we would not have been able to celebrate this milestone today!
About A2B-online’s fleet revitalisation
Taking a longer-term view, A2B-online is implementing a fleet revitalisation programme. In June 2023, A2B-online announced it had ordered the construction of the first 2 new container ships, with a strong focus on sustainable performance and optimized efficiency. The first newbuild vessel is forecast to be commissioned in autumn 2025. The construction and commissioning of the second newbuild vessel, the A2B Progress will follow three months after the first vessel.
Sustainable choices
The vessels have an improved intake for 45-feet containers and tanktainers resulting directly into 50% CO2 reduction per container compared to the existing fleet. The vessels are designed with a Methanol based propulsion system enabling us to carry our clients valuable containers at sea compliant to the most stringent European rules. Next to this future compliant power plant the vessel includes energy reducing features further reducing greenhouse emissions.
Follow the progress of our newbuild!
The keel laying is the next milestone! Would you like to follow our newbuild and read more about it? We will keep you up to date on this via this website page!
