SINGAPORE, Feb 24 (Reuters) – Chinese shipbuilder COSCO Corp (Singapore) Ltd on Monday reported a 71 percent fall in full-year 2013 net profit, due to lower profit contributions from ship building and marine engineering segments.

The company did not state its fourth-quarter results. In the first nine months of the year, its net profit slumped 68 percent to S$26 million.
The shipbuilder said its order book was at $7.8 billion, up from $7.2 billion a quarter earlier.
