Stena RoRo AB has signed a Letter of Intent for 2+2+2 RoRo cargo ships with a capacity of 3000-4700 lane meters. This LOI is a strategic investment for Stena RoRo in a segment which for a long time has been underinvested.

 The C-Flexer design builds on the previous experience of the successful E-Flexer and NewMax concepts with a combination of a highly efficient hull form, engines ready for future fuels and an expandable battery hybrid design.

“These ships will be built for today and designed for tomorrow”, says Per Westling, CEO Stena RoRo AB.

Stena C-Flexer, basic specifications:

  • Length: 200 m
  • Draught: 7,3 m
  • Beam: 28 or 31 m
  • Capacity: 3-deck version: 3.000 – 3.400 lane meters
  • Capacity: 4-deck version: 4.100 – 4.700 lane meters
  • Speed: 21 knots
