China delivered an independently designed and built 99,000-cubic-meter ultra-large ethane-ethylene carrier on Tuesday, with its overall technical indicators reaching world-leading levels, according to the shipbuilder.

Developed by Jiangnan Shipyard under China State Shipbuilding Corporation, the 230-meter vessel can transport ethane, ethylene and liquefied petroleum gas. It features low fuel consumption and maintenance costs and is equipped with a shaft generator and an ethane-fueled main engine to support greener long-distance shipping.
