Wartsila has won a contract to supply its propulsion and power generation systems for three new 21,800dwt chemical tankers that are under construction at two different shipyards in Vietnam owned by Triyards Holdings Limited. These ships are being built for Swiss-Canadian Maritime Ltd. and will be managed by Switzerland based ABC Maritime A.G. The contract with Wartsila was signed in November, and there are options for three more vessels. Wartsila's capability for providing a total solution package and to be responsible for the engineering and integration of the solutions provided, is cited as being a key factor in the award of this contract.

The Wartsila equipment is scheduled to be delivered to the yards during 2016. In addition to this, the ships will be powered by a 6-cylinder Wartsila X40-B two-stroke main engine designed by Winterthur Gas & Diesel, a joint venture between Wartsila and China State Shipbuilding Corporation (CSSC). The engine contract has been agreed separately between Triyards Marine Services Pte.

Ltd. and the Chinese two-stroke engine builder, Yuchai Marine Power Co. Ltd. (YCMP). The three 153 metre long tankers are set to be delivered to the owner in 2017.
