Philly Shipyard (PSI) has begun construction on the first of three Aloha Class LNG-fueled containerships for Matson Navigation Company. The contract, signed in 2022, is valued at approximately USD 1 billion, with deliveries expected in 2026 and 2027. These 854-foot vessels will be capable of carrying 3,600 TEU and operating at speeds exceeding 23 knots.
The ships can run on conventional marine fuels or LNG, incorporating 'green ship technology' to support Matson's 2030 greenhouse gas emissions reduction goal. This project marks PSI's third collaboration with Matson, following previous deliveries between 2003-2006 and 2018-2019. The new vessels will enhance Matson's Hawaii service and CLX operations.
Philly Shipyard has delivered the Patriot State, the second of five National Security Multi-Mission Vessels (NSMVs) for America's state maritime academies. This vessel, built for the U.S. Department of Transportation's Maritime Administration (MARAD), will serve Massachusetts Maritime Academy. The NSMV program aims to provide state-of-the-art training for future mariners and support humanitarian assistance and disaster relief missions.
The contract was awarded to Philly Shipyard by TOTE Services, which MARAD hired as the Vessel Construction Manager. This marks the first use of the VCM model in a government-sponsored shipbuilding program. The first NSMV, Empire State, was delivered in September 2023 for SUNY Maritime College. NSMVs III and IV are currently under construction, with NSMV V in the early stages of production.
Each NSMV can accommodate up to 600 cadets and features instructional spaces and a full training bridge. The program is seen as a vital investment in America's shipbuilding industry and maritime education, supporting nearly 400,000 U.S. jobs.
