Hosco boss urges bulker scrapping

摘要

中国最大私营疏浚公司扩大业务至打捞领域.翔宇疏浚控股有限公司以2,750万人民币收购江苏蛟龙打捞航务工程有限公司11%股本权益,完成转让及认购协议后,翔宇疏浚将拥有江苏蛟龙打捞经扩大注册股本的51%.%One of the most vocal proponents of scrapping to mitigate losses for the battered dry bulk industry has come out with a set of guidelines he'd like his peers to follow.GaoYanming, chairman of Hebei Ocean Shipping Co (Hosco), has suggested that all ships above 23 years old should be sent to the recyclers forthwith, and any ship above 20 years old should be considered worthy of the scrapper's welding torch.There are lots of old bulk carriers that should exit the market but still have not, Gao said in a recent interview with Chinese media, and this, he added, is a key factor dragging the industry down.
