太古船塢
Taikoo Dockyard and Engineering Company in Hong Kong built "Shuntien" for CNC in 1934. She replaced an earlier and smaller SS "Shuntien" that Scotts at Greenock on the Firth of Clyde had built in 1904 and that was scrapped in 1935. The new "Shuntien" was a sister ship of SS "Shengking", which Scotts had built in 1931. Both Taikoo Dockyard and CNC were owned by John Swire and Sons Ltd, which is British-owned but based in Hong Kong.
