An LNG carrier is a ship that carries natural gas liquefied at minus 163 degrees Celsius.
Samsung Heavy Industries maintains a unique position in the market for eco-friendly and high-specification LNG carriers,
including the world's largest 266,200m3 class LNG carrier, and electric-powered LNG carriers with excellent operational
performance and fuel efficiency, as well as eco-friendly and high-efficiency engine LNG carriers.
We are also leading technological innovations in the LNG carrier market, including the development and construction of new vessels such as icebreaking LNG carriers for polar regions.
An LNG-FSRU is an LNG import terminal that receives and stores liquefied natural gas from LNG carriers while moored offshore, regasifies the gas, and delivers it as a gas to onshore destinations via pipeline.
Samsung Heavy Industries is leading the LNG-FSRU market with various related technologies and hull-form developments to localize regasification systems.
A small LNG carrier is a vessel designed to transport LNG offshore, and we delivered two of them to be used in domestic LNG transportation projects, while an LNG bunkering vessel is a vessel that can supply fuel at sea to ships that use natural gas as operating fuel.
An ethane carrier is a vessel that liquefies and transports ethane extracted from natural gas, such as shale gas, to reduce its volume.
Samsung Heavy Industries is continuously working on technology development and project discovery to lead the ethane carrier market.
An ammonia carrier is a vessel that carries liquefied ammonia.
In a carbon-free hydrogen economy, ammonia is emerging as the most viable hydrogen carrier for the long-distance shipping.
As the hydrogen economy expands, we are expanding our vessel portfolio from the current Panamax and New Panama class vessels to larger ships to respond to changing market demand.
An LCO2 is a ship that captures carbon dioxide from industrial processes and transports the pressurized and cooled liquid carbon dioxide.
While various technologies for reducing carbon emissions are being commercialized, a carbon capture and storage technology is emerging as an alternative to these technologies and provides an economical solution for transporting large volumes of captured carbon dioxide to distant offshore storage.
A container ship is a ship that carries containerized cargo in its holds and decks.
Samsung Heavy Industries is leading the way in the container ship enlargement and is once again demonstrating its technological prowess by building LNG-fueled container ships.
A crude oil tanker is a vessel that directly loads and transports unprocessed crude oil.
We are developing and applying LNG fuel propulsion systems to build eco-friendly crude oil tankers.
A shuttle tanker is a vessel that transports crude oil from an offshore production facility to an onshore base.
These high-value vessels are equipped with advanced positioning equipment because they must maintain a constant position at sea and be able to reliably berth to oil production facilities.
Samsung Heavy Industries maintains a unrivaled position in the shuttle tanker market in terms of orders and deliveries.
An arctic shuttle tanker can break ice up to 1.4 meters thick, sail at speeds of 3.5 knots per hour, and is designed to withstand temperatures as low as minus 45 degrees Celsius.
Samsung Heavy Industries built and successfully delivered a forward and reverse bi-directional arctic shuttle tanker for polar operations.
A petroleum carrier is a ship that transports petroleum products that have been refined from crude oil, while a chemical carrier is a specialized ships that transports various types of chemicals in liquid form.
Samsung Heavy Industries is actively responding to diversifying customer demands by entering the petroleum product carrier market.
The offshore wind farm installation vessel built by Samsung Heavy Industries is capable of transporting and installing 12 3.6 MW wind turbines simultaneously, and is designed and built to install one wind turbine every 36 hours at most, even in harsh offshore environments with 20 mph winds and 2.5 meter waves.
