Heavy plate for large container ships
Floating giants in DIMARINE
The Regina Maersk (photo) is 318 meters in length, and 43 meters in the beam, making her one of the so-called post-Panamax vessels - ships too broad in the beam for the Panama Canal, but capable of transporting incredible cargo payloads - more than 6,000 TEU . Denmark's Odense Steel shipyard has already constructed twelve such giants; Dillinger was selected as the supplier for the shipbuilding plate required, since the dimensions of these vessels necessitate even greater cost-efficiency for their construction. The material supplied was thermomechanically rolled DIMARINE shipbuilding steel, which is notable in particular for its excellent weldability using the high-speed welding processes now widely employed in shipyards.
