Yeon Ave. Cable Schnitzefbro, Portland Pacific Resources' Bid For Subsidy To Build Four Vessels Supersedes Earlier Application A construction subsidy application to cover four vessels has been filed with the Maritime Administration by Pacific Resources Inc. on behalf of its new subsidiary, Hawaiian Inter- national Shipping Company. The vessels will be either combination ore/bulk/oil (OBO) carriers of 80,000-dwt each, or four tankers of 89,000-dwt each. The application is intended to supersede an earlier construction differential subsidy bid by Pacific Resources, which covered only three ore/bulk/oil carriers estimated to cost $34.6 million per vessel. In that earlier application, Pacific Resources had filed under its own name, rather than on behalf of Hawaiian International. According to the new application, total cost of the four 80,000-dwt tankers is estimated at approximately $130 million. The ships would contract to operate from crude oil sources in the Arabian Gulf and Indonesia to refineries in Hawaii and on the Pacific Coast of the United States. J.R.D. Systems, Inc. Names John J.
