Party B will use its semi-finished oil-tanker that is being built as its investment

Party B will use its semi-finished oil-tanker that is being built as its investment and will complete the remaining building work according to Party A's requirements.

It seems that we need to add the "that is being built" clause to reflect the meaning of 在建, as semi-finished does not convey the meaning of "that is being built". Without this added clause, it could refer to something that was built several years ago and had been halted ever since and it may not be easy to resume the ship-building process for the tanker.

这里在建和续建都尽量用building,因为造船通常用ship-building,而不是construction。

上面还拉下了“作价”,可改成:

Party B will use its semi-finished oil-tanker being built at an estimated price as its investment

Peer comment(s):

agree David Rockell (X) : but I think 'under construction' still sounds better than 'that is being built'

agree Kevin Yang : I like Dave's suggestion by using 'under construction'.
