Vessel Description

WL Pacific is a large Capesize bulk carrier operating under the Hong Kong flag, managed within the Pacific Basin Shipping fleet. Built in 2011 at the Qingdao Beihai Shipbuilding yard in China, the vessel is designed for the carriage of major dry bulk commodities. As a Capesize vessel, she is dimensionally too large to transit the Suez or Panama Canals and operates primarily on deep-sea routes connecting major commodity-exporting regions such as Australia and Brazil with import markets in Asia. The vessel reflects the operational profile typical of large bulk carriers engaged in long-haul, high-volume commodity trades.
