Daewoo Shipbuilding wins total $750 million orders

South Korea's Daewoo Shipbuilding & Marine Engineering, the world's second-biggest shipbuilder, said on Saturday that it had won orders totalling $750 million.

Part of the orders came from Angelicoussis Shipping Group of Greece, for which Daewoo will deliver two oil tankers and two bulk carriers by the second half of 2012, Daewoo said in a statement.

Also among the orders was a contract for an offshore oil production facility from an unidentified oil company.

Yonhap News had reported on Friday Daewoo had won a $400 million order from Exxon Mobil Corp for a marine plant but Daewoo had declined to confirm.
