Vessel Description

Los Andes Bridge is a large Capesize bulk carrier built in 2010 at the Tsuneishi Shipbuilding facility in Japan. With a deadweight capacity of approximately 180,000 tonnes, the vessel falls within the Capesize segment, designed to transit around Cape Horn and the Cape of Good Hope due to her dimensions exceeding the draft limitations of the Panama and Suez Canals. The vessel is primarily engaged in the transportation of dry bulk commodities including iron ore, coal, and grain on major deep-sea trade lanes. Her large carrying capacity makes her well suited for high-volume bulk trades between major export terminals and receiving ports across multiple ocean basins.
