HHI Proves Innovative Shipbuilding Method
HHI Proves Innovative Shipbuilding Method |
Hyundai Heavy Industries has successfully built a large LPG cargo ship on land without using dry docks for the first time in the world. The feat follows another first achieved three years ago when HHI built an oil carrier using the "on-ground building" method. HHI brought out the 82,000㎥ LPG carrier built for Norway's Bergesen at Hyundai's Ulsan factory on Wednesday. By completing an LPG vessel which has a complex cargo system, HHI demonstrated that any kind of ship can be built on land without dry docks. HHI regards Wednesday's triumph as a defining event in the history of shipbuilding, firmly establishing the on-ground building method and doing away with dry docks. Oh Byung-wook, senior EVP and COO of the company's Offshore & Engineering Division, said HHI plans to maximize its on-ground facility by doubling capacity from eight ships per year to 16 and stepping up efforts to advance the system. |
