SEOUL,
South Korea, Sept. 11,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- HD Hyundai will showcase the
future of decarbonization and digital technologies at Gastech, the
world's largest gas exhibition.
HD Hyundai has announced that it will participate in Gastech
2024, taking place in Houston,
USA, from September 17 to 20. The event is expected to host
around 800 companies worldwide and attract over 50,000 global
attendees.
HD Hyundai will be represented by Vice Chairman Chung Kisun, along with senior executives and
employees from sales, research and development, and engineering.
They plan to showcase eco-friendly technologies to global
companies, including shipowners and classification societies, and
discuss development strategies for the shipbuilding and maritime
industries.
Additionally, the exhibition will feature a comprehensive booth
including HD Korea Shipbuilding & Offshore Engineering, HD
Hyundai Heavy Industries, HD Hyundai Mipo, HD Hyundai Samho, HD
Hyundai Marine Solution, and HD Hyundai Electric. The booth will
showcase HD Hyundai's eco-friendly ship models, including a
next-generation LNG carrier, an FSRU, and a liquefied carbon
dioxide carrier.
During the event, HD Hyundai will carry out a total of 16
technical certification acquisitions and technical cooperation MOU
signings with global classification societies and companies. The
company will particularly showcase its advanced technologies in the
digital transformation and decarbonization of gas carriers.
HD Hyundai will receive an Approval in Principle (AIP) from DNV,
the Norwegian classification society, for its cloud-based digital
twin virtual sea trial verification technology for LNG carriers.
This technology enables objective vessel verification through
virtual sea trials by integrating and connecting digital twin
models of key systems—such as the engine, power, and gas systems—of
LNG carriers on the cloud.
From the American Bureau of Shipping (ABS), HD Hyundai will
receive an AIP for its unmanned engine room design and safety
monitoring solution for ammonia-powered ships. This design and
solution are expected to enhance crew safety.
Furthermore, HD Hyundai will receive several AIPs for
eco-friendly bunkering vessels. The company will obtain an AIP from
Lloyd's Register (LR) for the development of a 23,000m3 ammonia bunkering vessel, and
from the Korean Register (KR) for the development of an
18,000 m3 LNG bunkering
vessel. HD Hyundai will also sign an MOU with KR for joint
development of ammonia fuel supply system.
HD Hyundai Marine Solution will also receive an AIP from DNV for
the retrofit of Onboard carbon capture and storage (OCCS) systems
for vessels. This certification allows the company to expand its
business scope by adding OCCS retrofits to its existing
eco-friendly retrofit projects.
Moreover, on the first day of the event, September 17, HD Hyundai will host a technical
seminar to present trends in gas carriers, the current status of
electric propulsion systems, and the roadmap for vessel
digitalization to shipowners, classification societies, and other
stakeholders. On September 18 and 19,
in addition to the previously scheduled client meetings, the 'HD
RECEPTION' event will be held, providing an opportunity for
visiting clients to freely exchange ideas about HD Hyundai's
next-generation eco-friendly ships.
"HD Hyundai possesses leading-edge technology in the
decarbonization and digital transformation of vessels," said an
official of HD Hyundai. "We will continue to invest and develop
technology to contribute to the creation of a sustainable future
energy ecosystem."
