OOCL Japan named, sister vessel OOCL Hong Kong achieved a Guinness World Records Title

OOCL has announced that Hull number H2174, the third in its line of six 21 thousand TEU class containerships, has been named as the OOCL Japan at the Samsung Heavy Industries shipyard, the company said in its press release.
