French shipping giant CMA CGM on Wednesday (22 July) said it has recently named the second ship in a series of 24,000 TEU liquefied natural gas (LNG) dual-fuel ultra-large container ships (ULCS).
The Group’s latest ship, CMA CGM PANTHEON, the sister ship to CMA CGM NOTRE DAME, has joined the company’s fleet under the French flag.
During the ceremony, the vessel was welcomed by her Master, Captain Benoit LE DREAU, and her godmother, Ms. Xiao Wang, Director of Programming & Screening at the Shanghai International Film Festival, following maritime tradition.
“Soon to operate on the FAL1 service connecting Asia with Europe, CMA CGM PANTHEON embodies our commitment to supporting global trade while accelerating the energy transition in shipping,” the company said in a social media post.
