Kanoo Shipping Celebrates Maritime Innovation with Höegh Sunrise's Historic Maiden Call

We at Kanoo Shipping were proud to join the plaque exchange ceremony at Jebel Ali Port to mark the maiden call of Höegh Sunrise, the fifth vessel in Höegh Autoliners’ groundbreaking Aurora-class series. The event was attended by senior officials from DP World, the Höegh Autoliners management team, and our Kanoo team, making it a truly memorable milestone.

The Aurora-class vessels are the largest and most environmentally advanced car carriers ever built, with a capacity of 9,100 CEUs. They represent a bold step forward in tackling the challenge of reducing global shipping emissions – with Höegh Autoliners aiming for zero-emission operations by 2040.

As a trusted partner, Kanoo Shipping is delighted to have supported this historic maiden call at Jebel Ali. The Höegh Sunrise is more than just a marvel of modern engineering – it is a symbol of innovation, sustainability, and the future of deep-sea transportation.

We look forward to continuing our partnership with Höegh Autoliners as they lead the way toward a more sustainable maritime industry.
