X-Press Feeders has placed an order for six eco-friendly, methanol-ready containerships from Shanghai Waigaoqiao Shipbuilding (SWS), a subsidiary of China State Shipbuilding Corporation (CSSC). These 11,000 TEU vessels, fitted with scrubbers and various energy-saving technologies, are scheduled for delivery between the third quarter of 2027 and the fourth quarter of 2028.
The decision to return to SWS reflects X-Press Feeders' ongoing fleet renewal strategy aimed at modernizing its fleet with environmentally sustainable vessels. These ships are designed to optimize fuel efficiency, reduce drag, and minimize carbon emissions, aligning with the company's commitment to greener shipping solutions. The vessels will also feature windshields and scrubbers to further enhance operational efficiency.
While specific deployment plans for the vessels have yet to be disclosed, X-Press Feeders stated that these details will be announced closer to the delivery dates. The new ships will provide the necessary capacity and tonnage to support the company's core trade routes, contributing to its broader strategy of sustainable fleet expansion.The investment marks another significant step in X-Press Feeders' efforts to reduce its environmental impact while maintaining competitive and efficient shipping operations.

X-Press Feeders, the world's largest independent common carrier, has launched Europe's first scheduled feeder network powered by green methanol, a sustainable marine fuel that reduces greenhouse gas emissions by up to 65%. This milestone coincided with the naming and christening ceremony of X-Press Feeders' first dual-fuel methanol-powered vessel, Eco-Maestro, in Rotterdam.The vessel was built by Yangzijiang Shipbuilding Group.
Eco-Maestro is the inaugural vessel of 14 dual-fuel ships ordered by X-Press Feeders, which plans to primarily deploy these vessels on European routes. This initiative aligns with the European Union’s implementation of an emissions trading scheme (ETS) for maritime shipping and the upcoming Fuel EU Maritime regulations starting in January 2025, which mandate the reduction of greenhouse gas (GHG) emission intensity for energy used on board ships.
The new methanol-powered feeder network includes two services: Green Finland X-PRESS (GFX), connecting Rotterdam, Antwerp Bruges, Helsinki, Tallinn, and HaminaKotka, and Green Baltic X-PRESS (GBX), linking Rotterdam, Antwerp Bruges, Klaipeda, and Riga. Green bio-methanol, a renewable energy source produced from organic matter, is independently certified in Europe under ISCC (International Sustainability and Carbon Certification).
