On March 28, the new generation of green and environmentally friendly 50000DWT MR tanker “JAL PRERANA” built by Yangzi Mitsui Shipbuilding for Singapore ship owners was delivered and started its maiden voyage.
The “JAL PRERANA” is a new-generation environmentally friendly MR tanker tailored by Yangzijiang-Mitsui Shipbuilding to meet customers’ needs. By optimizing the hull line and cargo hold design, and equipped with an integrated and energy-efficient propulsion system, the vessel has flexible and diverse freight capacity and outstanding environmentally friendly characteristics.
Its ship energy efficiency ranks first in the current MR tanker market. The vessel successfully completed its trial mission in February 2025, and all test data are better than the R&D set indicators.
The successful delivery of the vessel marks that the Yangzi Mitsui Shipbuilding has officially formed a product system covering three core ship types namely, LPG carriers, LEG carriers, LNG carriers and other clean energy gas carriers; product tankers and chemical tankers; and bulk carriers, to build a more stable, diverse, flexible and green product structure layout.
