ONE INNOVATION

Ocean Network Express (ONE) has announced that the company’s first ever 24,000 TEU class Megamax was successfully delivered at Kure Shipyard of Japan Marine United Corporation.

With a capacity up to 24,136 TEU, ‘ONE INNOVATION’ aims to help bring economies of scale and significantly lower carbon emissions through a state-of-the-art hull design that aims to maximise cargo intake and minimise fuel consumption.

The vessel is reportedly equipped with a bow windshield, an energy saving device, and an exhaust gas cleaning system to meet the emission regulations of IMO.

It is also said to be the first of six new Megamax vessels joining ONE’s core fleet.

ONE plans to offer more competitive and best-in-class services to its customers with decreased environmental impact. 

“ONE INNOVATION is the largest vessel in our fleet, and we are proud to have it as our flagship,” said Managing Director of ONE, Yu Kurimoto, during a commemorative party.

“We are actively working to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from our fleet, and we are confident that this vessel will contribute to this effort and bring innovation to global logistics,” added Kurimoto.

In May 2023, Global Shipping Business Network (GSBN) collaborated with Ocean Network Express (ONE) to further maritime digitalisation.
