According to Vale SA the world largest producer of the raw material used to make steel and owner of the vessels, the biggest iron ore carriers ever built will be able to enter three Chinese ports.
The company said the northern Chinese ports of Dalian and Dongjiakou and Majishan near Shanghai have the capacity to receive the so called Valemaxes that are able to haul 400,000 tonne cargoes.
Vale said “The decision to receive the ship is taken by the port. The vessels right to enter will depend on berth capacity, the draft the space to maneuver the ship, and the security of the mooring operation.” (sourced from Bloomberg)
