About MPC Container Ships ASA

MPC Container Ships ASA operates as a pure‐play container vessel owner and charterer, specializing in the acquisition and long‐term chartering of modern container ships. Incorporated in Norway, the company focuses on securing a diversified fleet of gearless vessels, which are then chartered out to established liner operators under fixed‐rate time and bareboat agreements. This asset‐light model allows MPC Container Ships to benefit from contracted cash flows while mitigating exposure to spot market volatility.

The company’s fleet consists of medium‐sized container vessels ranging in capacity from approximately 1,000 TEU to 4,500 TEU, with an emphasis on younger, fuel‐efficient ships.
