shipyard

Chinese shipyards have more than 50 active LNG carriers and another 50 scheduled for delivery in the next few years.

MV Hebridean Isles first entered the water in a spectacular sideways launch in 1985, but seven years later the shipyard closed for good.

The warship was built for the Royal Navy at the Yarrow shipyard in Glasgow in the 1970s, and saw action in the Falklands War.

In fact, South Korea had been instrumental in helping America revive its shipping capabilities and last year, for example, Hanwha Ocean paid $100 million to buy the Philly shipyard in Pennsylvania.

Hanwha Ocean, which runs a U.S. shipyard in Philadelphia, didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment.
