Senegal Maritime Infrastructure Establishment Project This project is to construct two car/passenger carriers, two terminals and two wharfs in N'dakhonga and Foundiougne and one cold storage in Ziguinchor, with two years of O&M service provided after the completion of construction. In December 2011, a consortium of Samsung C&T and Dongil Shipyard won the order for Maritime Infrastructure Establishment Project (MIEP) in Senegal. The project consisted of two new car/passenger carriers with capacity of 200 passengers, two terminals and wharfs in N’Dakhonga and Foundiougne and one cold storage including two years of vessel operation and maintenance. What makes the MIEP project so special is that it can offer total solution for the beneficiary country. It not only includes the required vessels but also covers other maritime infrastructure that is essential for development of maritime logistics and related industry. Since the project is financed by Korean EDCF, the terms and conditions of financing are attractive as well, especially for countries with great potential but with little means.

Netherlands, 2 units of Cable Laying Vessel This project is to construct two units of CLV purchased by Royal Boskalis Westminster N.V., the Netherlands in April 2011 and these vessel were constructed by ZPMC(main contractor) in Shanghai, China. Samsung C&T won a contract for the construction of two units of power cable laying vessel from Royal Boskalis Westminster N.V. in July, 2011. At the same time, Samsung placed an order with ZPMC for the supply of the vessels. This is a full turnkey project in which Samsung plays the role of main contractor that takes the responsibility for managing vessel construction undertaken by ZPMC of Shanghai, China. The construction of the vessels measuring 100 meters in length with cable loading capacity of 5,000 tons is expected to be completed at the beginning of the second half of 2013. Ship owners have expressed keen interest in shipbuilding in China for its price advantage, but there are always concerns about the quality. Therefore, ship owners prefer players like Samsung C&T from Korea, a global leader in shipbuilding, to take charge in management, design, procurement, fabrication and commissioning of the vessels built in China. On top of that, demand for cable laying vessel is highly likely to surge in the near future boosted by the swelling demand for underwater interconnector power cables as a result of increased energy use, geographic imbalances in energy consumption and growth of offshore wind farms.
