This exciting project with SHI for a state-of-the-art vessel represents the next step in that journey,” said Patrick Ryan, ABS Senior Vice President Engineering and Technology. “ABS classed the world’s first LNG carrier and today continues to lead global gas carrier classification.”
“SHI has introduced advanced LNG carriers to the market successfully with industry leading partners such as ABS,” said Jong H Youn, Vice President of SHI. “In this JDP we will focus on the examination and realization of future technologies with SHI’s most advanced LNG carrier design to meet current and future market demand.”
The JDP will see the SHI to deliver the basic concept and design for a next generation LNG carrier that will have an advanced air lubrication system. Moreover, it will also incorporate smart ship technologies. The design of the structure and the arrangements will be reviewed my ABS.
