(SEOUL=Yonhap News) Ulsan-based Hyundai Heavy Industries Co., the world's largest shipbuilder by sales, said Thursday it has received a US$58 million order to build 15 bullet tanks for storing liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) for a Nigerian firm.

Hyundai Heavy said it is set to deliver the tanks to Nigeria's Dangote Oil Refining Company, Africa's largest refinery, beginning in April 2019.

The 15 cylindrical tanks -- each being eight meters in diameter and 95 meters in length -- can hold 75,000 cubic meters of LPG, according to Hyundai Heavy.
