In 2023, looking towards the long term, Danaos adopted a strategy of investing in new vessels with advanced environmental features . Fourteen green newbuilding vessels are under construction,scheduled for delivery between 2024 and 2027. All fourteen of our newbuildings in Korea and China will be methanol ready, while two of them will hold the ammonia ready notation as well.
In addition in 2023 we decided to diversify our portfolio expanding our operations in the dry bulk sector with the acquisition of ten Capesize bulk carriers. We have achieved our Carbon intensity reduction commitments for 2025, two years ahead, while we are on the right track to achieve our other commitments in the environmental, social and governance dimensions as stipulated in this report.
