The naming ceremony of the MV 'RIKE J' marks a milestone in the current modernization of our fleet. The first newbuild of the ENVIRO feeder series was named after the name of her godmother.
Fleet-Reneval
Newbuilds on order
Five years after the last new buildings went into service, contracts for new buildings could again be concluded. The first of two heavy lift vessels was delivered in the autumn. In addition, we ordered new 1,200 TEU container feeder vessesl from a series of newbuilds.
Continuation ensured
Several refinancing concepts were successfully implemented in 2020.
Expansion of the container fleet
Commissioning of four 1000 TEU container feeder ships with a modern exhaust gas treatment system.
Modernisation of the fleet
The modernisation of the fleet is progressing. After the sale of older units, four modern 1,000-TEU container feeders with Scrubber technology as well as an ECOLIFT500 heavy-lift vessel are being ordered from Chinese shipyards.
Ship Management
The shipping company takes over the nautical-technical support for several container and heavy-lift vessels in the "third-party management" which shows the high competence as a ship manager.
Maria Jüngerhans deceased
Maria Jüngerhans, wife of Captain Heinrich Jüngerhans and long-time
commercial manager of the shipping company, passes away on February 6th
at the age of 65.
Further extension of the heavy lift fleet: 4 x 14,300 dwt
First-time building of a large series of 1,036 TEU vessels
Large series are for the first time ordered jointly with other shipping
companies. Jüngerhans received three newbuildings from a total of 15
vessels from the Jiangdong Shipyard in China out of a bulk order.
Delivery of a further series from Portugal
Delivery of a further series from Portugal: 4 x 10,000 dwt with a length
of 139 meters. Equipped with two heavy lift cranes 250 tons each - in
traverse operation up to 500 tons. Building yard: Estaleiros Navais de
Viana do Castelo.
MV "PERSEUS" and MV "PICTOR J"
Two new 925 TEU container vessels taken over. Naval Gijon in Spain is the building yard.
New warehouse construction
Um den gestiegenen Anforderungen bei der Bevorratung mit Ausrüstungs- und Ersatzteilen besser nachkommen zu können, wir auf dem unmittelbar an das Reedereigelände angrenzenden Grundstück eine moderne Lagerhalle mit Nebenräumen errichtet.
Six new heavy lift vessels from Portugal
Construction of six modern heavy lift vessels with a loading capacity of
8,000 dwt and two heavy lift cranes each with 250 tons, which combined
in traverse operation can lift and move up to 500 tons.
Extension: Extension of office building
Due to the increased demand for office work places, the office building
was extended by a southern wing so that also more work places,
conference rooms and wash rooms were created in addition to the new
office space. Space for more than 50 work places was thereby created.
Large series: 16 x "Hegemann Buildings"
The collaboration with the shipyard group of the entrepreneur from
Bremen, Detlef Hegemann, was intensified. The Rolandwerft shipyard
between 2002 and 2007 delivers a total of 16 container vessels having
the size between 630 and 900 TEU.
