THE United Arab Shipping Co (UASC) has chartered a 9,034-TEU newbuilding from Singapore-based non-operating owner Asiatic Lloyd. The wide beam neopanamax containerships, Asiatic Summer was recently delivered by the Hyundai Samho shipyard, and is anchored at Busan awaiting her new assignment in October, reports Alphaliner. UASC will deploy the ship on the FE-West Med AMC 1/AMX 1 service jointly operated with CSCL.
