Qatar-based maritime and logistics conglomerate Milaha has acquired its largest container vessel to date.

The 3,768TEU vessel, Majd, was built by STX Shipbuilding in South Korea.

The 246.87-metre LOA Majd has a deadweight of 44,985 metric tonnes.

Milaha President and CEO Abdulrahman Essa Al-Mannai said Majd would be phased into its existing network and "gradually replace smaller tonnage".
