CCS Rules for Natural Gas Fueled Ships was published in 2013. Since the Rules became effective, the number of LNG fueled ships built or converted in accordance with CCS Rules for Natural Gas Fueled Ships is over 290.
I. Waterborne LNG industry chain
CCS Rules for Natural Gas Fueled Ships was
published in 2013. Since the Rules became effective, the number of LNG fueled
ships built or converted in accordance with CCS Rules for Natural Gas Fueled Ships is
over 290. To further expand its services, CCS has established a database of a
large number of technical solutions for ship conversion and shipbuilding, and
has published Rules for Classification and Construction of Liquefied Natural Gas
(LNG) Fueled Waterborne Bunkering Pontoons and Rules for Liquefied Natural Gas
Bunkering Ships to meet the new needs of the industry. In addition, several
small LNG carriers have been classified with CCS in recent years. Based on the
service experience of the FSU projects, CCS has the capabilities to provide
safe, efficient and green solutions to FSRUs and FSUs, etc.

II. Hydrogen fueled ships
CCS continues to conduct research on the application of hydrogen fuel and fuel cells in ships, and has developed and published the Guidelines for Ships Using Alternative Fuels, which puts forward safety technical indicators for hydrogen fueled and fuel cell ships in terms of layout, system design, fuel storage, fuel bunkering, auxiliary systems, etc. Through technical means such as rules, guidelines and risk assessment, CCS provides support for ensuring the safety of hydrogen fueled ships and achieving zero water traffic emissions.

III. Lithium-ion battery powered ships
CCS
has carried out comprehensive research on marine lithium battery safety
technology. Through on-site plan approval, theoretical research and test
verification, CCS has developed the Guidelines for Survey of Purely Battery Powered
Ships, constructed the standard system for purely battery powered ships,
controlled the risks of application of lithium-ion battery on ships, provided
technical support and safety assurance for the comprehensive promotion of
battery powered ships in China, and introduced comprehensive solutions for
