CMA CGM has christened its new vessel, a 1,700 TEU British-flagged container ship, the CMA CGM Herodote.
The CMA CGM Herodote is the first in a series of six vessels dedicated to the Europe-Guyana-North Brazil route.
Especially designed for operation in shallow waters, CMA CGM Herodote is fitted with 240 reefer plugs and has two side thrusters to enable berthing without tug assistance.
The vessel will be deployed on the Group’s service linking Europe, Guyana and North Brazil, with calls at Algesiras, Leixoes, Rotterdam, Tilbury, Rouen, Le Havre, Saint Maarten, Port of Spain, Degrad des Cannes, Belem, Fortaleza, Natal and back to Algesiras.
