Various resources including iron ore, coal, and grain, are key to people's daily lives and to the world economy. Japan has always relied heavily on imports for these raw materials, and today's economic growth and enhanced international division of labor make global shipping more active than ever.
MOL operates the world's largest fleet of bulk carriers, offering stable, mass-volume transport of dry bulk cargo. We meet various customer needs with a range of specialized carriers designed and constructed for each cargo's characteristics and conditions at loading/unloading ports. These vessels include iron ore carriers that have become successively larger, coal carriers tailored to the needs of specific ports, and wood chip carriers that transport lightweight, high-volume shipments to the worldwide paper industry. With bulk carriers of all sizes, we have the flexibility to meet different customer needs and provide top-quality service. We also operate heavy lifters that carry massive cargo such as large-size machinery and plant equipment that are indispensable for industrial growth and cannot be moved on conventional vessels. |

Demand for transport of iron ore and coal is growing steadily with rising global demand for steel products, especially in China. MOL, which operates the world's largest fleet of iron ore carriers, will further expand its fleet by developing and constructing the world's largest such vessel, a 300,000-ton class iron ore carrier and a new "Handy Cape" class ship designed with the expansion of the Panama Canal in mind.
MOL's dry bulkship service is continually evolving to meet diverse customer needs with top-quality service. |
