This ICT-based solution gathers real-time data from onboard equipment to provide analysis and optimize vessel operations. ISS 2.0 integrates a cloud platform and includes new features such as trim optimization, container loss prevention, and onboard report editing.
The system's interface has been redesigned for easier monitoring of ship performance metrics, including the Ship Carbon Intensity Indicator (CII Rating). The upgraded version also enhances performance monitoring with optimized route guidance based on weather data, aiming to improve operational efficiency, cost savings, and vessel stability.
The new system has been installed on an 8,000 TEU container ship operated by Sinokor Merchant Marine. Following a successful pilot test in September, the system received Approval in Principle (AIP) from the Korean Register (KR) and achieved the ‘Smart(INFRA) Notation’ certification.
HD Hyundai’s CTO, Jeon Seung-ho, highlighted the company's focus on advancing AI-based operational capabilities to deliver user-centered digital solutions for ships. Kim Yeontae, General Manager of the Technical Division at KR, emphasized the significance of this project in promoting smart ship solutions across the industry.
In related news, HD Hyundai has completed testing of its ‘HiMSEN’ ammonia dual-fuel engine, designed for use in both ammonia carriers and marine power generation. The company plans to expand its application to land-based power markets.
