English term or phrase: box ship
"[UNTERNEHMEN] is said to have included the [SCHIFFSTYP] on its portfolio as demand for LNG and *box ships* have tapered off."

Anderes Beispiel, hier mit der Angabe "4,250 teu", die mir in Suchmaschinen aber auch nur im Englischen untergekommen ist:

"The recent cancellation of an order for eight [GL-class] 4,250-teu *box ships* from [UNTERNEHMEN] means the shipyard is able to re-allocate the berth spaces for building
the bulkers."

Hat jemand einen Übersetzungsvorschlag?
