Read previewIt is no secret that China's shipbuilding capacity is unmatched on the world stage and that its shipyards are churning out new warships at a breakneck pace. China's shipbuilding industry has over 230 times the capacity of the US, according to recent estimates from the Office of Naval Intelligence, representing about 50% of the total global shipbuilding capacity. The shipyards building China's navyDalian is another significant Chinese shipyard and was site of production for the CNS Shandong aircraft carrier. The China Power Project at CSIS has carefully documented developments in Chinese shipbuilding, including work at the yards and new vessels. That push in military shipbuilding is propelled by China's political motivations and blue-water navy goals.

Chinese shipyards this year won 45 LNG tanker orders worth an estimated $9.8 billion, about five times their 2021 order values, according to shipping data provider Clarksons Research. By late November, Chinese yards had grown their LNG order books to 66 from 21, giving them 21% of global orders worth around $60 billion. Still, Chinese yards received 19 foreign orders for LNG tankers this year and that number is likely to grow. "Chinese yards have become more attractive because of the South Korean backlog, as well as rising costs," said ICIS analyst Songer. Chinese yards' relationship with GTT also helps, he said.
