A prolonged anticipation,

All for the sake of coming together once,

For a splendid and unparalleled rendezvous in Shanghai

Hailed as the benchmark for the international maritime industry's technological development trends, the 2023 Marintec China, took place from December 5th to 8th in Shanghai. This marks the return of the China International Maritime Exhibition to offline activities after a four-year hiatus.

On December 5th, the 2023 Marintec China opened with great ceremony at the Shanghai New International Expo Center. CCS President Sun Feng led a delegation to participate. During the event, Vice President Fan Qiang introduced to guests CCS's applications of green, intelligent, and digital technologies in the field of maritime, as well as the achievements in ship safety and industry data interconnection, and other aspects.

On the first day, CCS organized a series of exciting activities. Let's take a quick look:

Jiangnan Shipbuilding Group and CCS Jointly Held the Signing Ceremony of the Joint Research and Development Agreement for the Global Navigation "Unmanned" Merchant Ship Based on MASS Rules

Jiangnan Shipbuilding Group, in collaboration with CCS, has jointly developed a fully autonomous "unmanned" commercial ocean-going vessel with a capacity of 4,000 tons (referred to as "unmanned ship"). The successful research and development of this vessel are expected to contribute to technological breakthroughs and leadership in the field for both parties, while simultaneously elevating the level of intelligent technology in the associated industry.

In addition, CCS has also issued certificates for a number of enterprises: the first domestic methanol/diesel dual-fuel type approval certificate for Zibo Diesel Machinery Co., Ltd., the marine containerized mobile power supply type approval certificate for Wuhan EVE Energy Storage Co., Ltd., the marine lithium battery fire prevention and control device type approval certificate for Chuneng New Energy Co., Ltd., and the pressure, temperature, liquid level measurement and alarm system network security (SL2) type approval certificate for SUPCON Marine Equipment (Zhejiang) Co., Ltd. And type approval certificate for lubricating oil ultrafiltration oil purifier to Ningbo Huanjie Ultrafiltration Technology Co., Ltd.

AIP Certificate Awarding Ceremony for 115,000DWT Ammonia Fuel Oil Tanker

The 115,000 DWT ammonia fuel-powered tanker adopts the latest research and development of a straight ball bow design, ensuring that the ship achieves an excellent carbon emission level upon entering operation. Ammonia fuel is utilized to achieve 'zero-carbon' operation throughout the ship's life cycle (well-to-wake).

AIP Certificate Awaring Ceremony for 114,200 DWT Dual Fuel Methanol Oil Tanker

COSCO SHIPPING Energy Co., Ltd., COSCO SHIPPING Heavy Industry Co., Ltd., and the 708th Research Institute of China State Shipbuilding Corporation jointly developed the 114,200 DWT methanol dual-fuel power tanker. It adopts a green methanol dual-fuel power design, and the use of green methanol fuel can achieve a carbon emission reduction of more than 90%. The vessel demonstrates excellent speed index and fuel economy, optimized structural weight, and a high level of intelligence. The performance indicators have reached the international advanced level.

AIP Certificate Awarding Ceremony for 16,000 TEU Container Ship with OCCS

CCS issued the Approval in Principle (AIP) certificate to the 16,000 TEU container ship equipped with Onboard Carbon Capture System (OCCS) by CIMC Marine Engineering Design and Research Institute. The 16,000 TEU container ship is equipped with a high-efficiency carbon capture system, resulting in less than 1% impact on container space compared to conventional ship types. This significant reduction can greatly diminish the levels of Energy Efficiency Design Index (EEDI) and Carbon Intensity Indicator (CII). The installation of the carbon capture system is of great significance for achieving the International Maritime Organization (IMO) carbon reduction targets through the adoption of post-processing emission reduction technology.

AIP Certificate Awarding Ceremony for Wind Assistant Propulsor

The wind assistant propulsor is an energy-saving device that utilizes the Magnus effect to aid in ship navigation. Ships equipped with the wind assistant propulsor can adjust the rotation direction of the rotor in crosswind or oblique wind conditions. This adjustment allows the ship to generate thrust in the forward direction, thereby achieving the assisting effect.

Ammonia/Oil Dual Fuel Engine Certification Ceremony

The development of CRRC's 12V240H-DFA ammonia fuel engine is based on the ammonia fuel-powered tugboat project of COSCO SHIPPING Heavy Industry Group. It further advances the development of the ammonia/diesel dual-fuel engine building upon the foundation of the natural gas dual-fuel engine. After two years of research and development, simulation analysis, and principle prototype testing, the engine received the first CCS four-stroke ammonia engine principle approval certificate upon the successful ignition of the engineering prototype. This demonstrates that the technology of this engine model meets the design requirements and satisfies the relevant rules and regulations.
