ABS signs MOU with HD KSOE to advance zero-carbon ships
ABS and HD Korea Shipbuilding & Offshore Engineering (HD KSOE) signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) to advance the development and certification of innovative systems for next-generation, zero-carbon ships, according to ABS's release.
Representatives from both companies met at Gastech 2024 for the signing ceremony. Entitled “Cooperation on the Advanced Zero-Carbon Ships,” the MOU focuses on integrating advanced technologies in three main areas:
A novel LNG cargo handling system that utilizes full re-liquefaction system to suppress boil-off gas (BOG) for zero-carbon LNG carriers
A comprehensive ammonia fuel supply system including pressure control for large commercial vessels
An efficient integrated system that enhances re-liquefaction with cold ammonia fuel supply, thereby improving system efficiency and reducing power consumption
ABS provides comprehensive decarbonization and sustainability solutions for the offshore and maritime industries. The ABS approach, combined with extensive technical knowledge and customized solutions, helps owners and operators achieve their decarbonization and sustainability goals.
