Things looked good for the Korean yards in the first quarter of 2014, as the shipyards secured orders for a combined USD 12 billion on ships and offshore vessels, reports Asiasis.
The major yard conglomerates were the primary drivers behind the order intake. Hyundai Heavy Industries - HHI - which has Hyundai Samho Heavy Industries as one of its subsidiaries, sealed orders for a total USD 5.5 billion alone.

The HHI orders consisted mainly of VLGC's, VLCC's, the ultra large container ships, and offshore vessels.
