SPP Shipbuilding Co., a South Korean shipyard, said Wednesday it has won a combined US$210 million worth of deals to build six petrochemical-carrying vessels.

Under the deals with European customers, SPP will deliver the mid-sized petrochemical-carrying tankers between the second half of 2014 and 2015, the shipbuilder said.

The company did not disclose the names of its European clients.

The latest deal came after SPP clinched $470 million in orders for 14 vessels earlier this month, according to the company.

Last year, SPP Shipbuilding secured orders to build 28 mid-sized petrochemical-carrying ships, more than 50 percent of the global orders placed for such ships, the company said.
