Korean Register (KR) has launched ‘SeaTrust-Frame3D’, a grillage structure evaluation software for ships. SeaTrust-Frame3D enables a complicated ship structure to be simply modelled by representing it as a grillage structure.
Samsung Heavy Industries and Panasia, a domestic eco-friendly facility company, succeeded in developing an ‘onboard carbon capture system’ applicable to LNG-fueled ships and became the first in Korea to receive approval in principle from KR.
KR has signed an MOU agreement with STX Energy Solutions (STX ES) and DSME to work together on ‘The technology standardization and commercialization of solid oxide fuel cells.’
The Korean Register (KR) has developed new ‘Guidance for Underwater Radiated Noise’ which will help protect marine ecosystems by reducing noise from ships.
KR has awarded AIP to SSHI and Panasia for their ‘Onboard Carbon Capture and Storage System (OCCS)’, a eco-friendly technology which captures the CO2 emitted in the exhaust gases generated from the internal combustion engines of ships.
One of the ships is a 60,000m3 ammonia-fueled ammonia carrier and the other is a 38,000m3 ammonia carrier/bunkering ship, developed by Korea Shipbuilding & Offshore Engineering (KSOE), Hyundai Heavy Industries (HHI) and Hyundai Mipo Dockyard (HMD).
KR and NAPA and data analysis providers have successfully created a ‘Live Interface Function’ for their respective software programs KR SeaTrust-HullScan and NAPA Steel, allowing the real-time synchronization of a ship’s structural data from the NAPA software to KR’s SeaTrust-HullScan.
The Korean Register (KR) has awarded Approval In Principle (AIP) for an LNG carrier with a prismatic IMO type-B tank built by Hyundai Mipo Dockyard (HMD).
Korean Register (KR) and DSME have competed the world’s first ship to ship (STS) LNG loading for gas trial. The SM JEJU LNG2 has supplied LNG in the STS gas-trial to a 173.400 cbm LNG carrier. The demonstration test took place at DSME’s Okpo Shipyard from 24-26 November, 2020.
The Korean Register (KR) has presented Hyundai Heavy Industries (HHI) with the world’s first Cyber Security (CS Ready) class notation for a very large liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) carrier.
