What happened
Asia Break Bulk, which is part of the COLI Group, signed long-term agreements with Schoeller Holdings for four new multipurpose heavy-lift vessels. These 12,600-DWT Octopus-type vessels are designed to expand the company's project cargo transportation capabilities. The first vessel is scheduled for delivery in October 2028.

Why it matters
The fleet expansion is intended to meet growing customer demand for transporting heavy, oversized, and complex cargoes directly to ports with limited infrastructure or draft restrictions. Maximilian Fischer, General Manager at Asia Break Bulk, noted this increasing demand for shorter transit times.
