Peter Döhle linked to four 3,700 TEU containership orders in China

German non-operating shipowner Peter Döhle Schiffahrts has been linked to an order for four 3,700 TEU containerships at CSSC Chengxi Shipyard in China, with deliveries reportedly scheduled for 2029. According to DynaLiners, the Hamburg-based company is understood to be behind the newbuilding contract, although its involvement has not been officially confirmed. The four vessels would represent a combined capacity of 14,800 TEU, adding to the German shipowner’s containership investment programme. Earlier this year, Peter Döhle reportedly ordered two 3,100 TEU containerships from the same Chinese shipyard, at a price of approximately US$48 million per vessel. If confirmed, the latest order would bring the number of containerships associated with Peter Döhle’s contracts at Chengxi Shipyard this year to six, covering two different vessel sizes.
