AIP Follows JDP to Replace a Diesel Generator Onboard a VLCC
abdominal has actually approved Approval in Principle (AIP) to Solid Oxide Fuel Cell (SOFC) modern technology created by Daewoo Shipbuilding & & Marine Engineering Co.,Ltd (DSME).
Granting of AIP complies with 2 joint growth tasks in between abdominal and also DSME, the most recent to create SOFC modern technology to change a minimum of among 3 diesel generators commonly on-board a Very Large Crude Carrier (VLCC).
abdominal is currently dealing with DSME on future r & d locations to be executed throughout comprehensive style and also screening of the SOFC modern technology.
“Fuel cells are an important technology in the development of next generation marine propulsion systems and can make a significant contribution to the industry’s decarbonization ambitions. We are proud to be able to support DSME in developing this system and realizing its potential,” stated Patrick Ryan, ABDOMINAL Senior Vice President, Global Engineering and also Technology.
Dr Dong- kyu Choi, DSME Executive Vice President, stated: “We have completed the conceptual design, including how to effectively deploy fuel cell systems in a limited space and utilize them safely through joint development projects with ABS, and these joint research results will serve as a cornerstone for future design and test evaluation.”
