OSK-ShipTech has signed a contract with Tanzania government-owned Marine Services Company Limited (MSCL) for Owner’s Assistance and local assembly supervision of their new passenger ferry on site in Mwanza.
MSCL, who operates both ferries, cargo ships, and tankers on three of Africa’s Great Lakes, has turned to Danish OSK-ShipTech for building supervision of their new ferry, which has been prefabricated in Korea and shipped to Tanzania for final assembly.
Within foreseeable future, another two African ferry projects could become a reality.
The new ferry for Lake Victoria is planned for completion around early summer 2022.
