Intelligence into the future market competition the main elements of new ship orders growth

(2) Intelligent trend

The formation of the development trend of ship intelligence is mainly based on the multiple promotion of technology and external macro environment. With the development of modern science and technology, the rapid development of industrial Internet, artificial intelligence & and other technologies has provided strong support for the acceleration of the shipbuilding industry process, and the development of intelligent ships has technical feasibility. In addition, in response to the downturn in the ship market and the large excess capacity, shipowners have increased demands for ship operation safety and economy. Intelligent ships have outstanding advantages in improving ship operation efficiency, safety and low ship fuel consumption. At the same time, the implementation of international energy conservation and emission reduction rules and regulations, the future new shipbuilding, operating vessels require the installation of ship energy consumption and pollution detection and reporting system, and further put forward requirements for the information and intelligent degree of ships, the shipbuilding industry as a national water transportation, Marine resources development of an important strategic industry. It is important to the development and maintenance of national Marine resources and the growth of national economy. Made in China 2025 promotes Marine engineering equipment and high ships as one of the ten key development areas, and makes it clear that high-tech ships are an important direction for the transformation and upgrading of China's shipbuilding industry. The transformation of the ship power to the shipbuilding power, innovation-driven, product upgrading is the key goal of the in-depth adjustment of the industry. As an important representative of high ships, intelligent ships will become the main elements of the future competition in the world shipbuilding industry.

South Korea and the two countries in the field of smart ships, South Korean shipping companies in the face of the downturn in the shipping market, shipbuilding orders continue to decline in the context of the industry, the intelligent development of the shipping industry as an important strategic means to improve competitiveness. Prior to Hyundai Heavy's acquisition of Daewoo Shipbuilding, in 2017, Hyundai Heavy launched the global shipbuilding industry's first Integrated Smart Ship Solution (ISSS). Its proprietary information and communication technology (ICT) enables cost-effective navigation and ship ISSS provides operators with a wider range of ships, including optimal navigation routes and navigation speeds as well as the state of the ship's front and rear hulls, thereby minimizing the ship's resistance during navigation. The solution collects and analyzes energy data, monitoring status of engines, propellers, and can operate ships down to 6%, making them safer and more efficient. Hyundai Heavy Industries takes advantage of new technological opportunities such as smart ship technology to steadily grasp the new development of the industry and shift its focus to emerging ways such as ship services and manufacturing. At the same time, combined with its own position in the field of ship manufacturing, enhance competitiveness, and develop in the field of ship intelligence, so that enterprises out of the trough period.

As a veteran shipbuilding power, it has launched research in the field of smart ships earlier, and continues to make efforts to seize market opportunities to reshape the new core competitiveness of Japanese shipbuilding in the global scope. From the perspective of the development trend of Japan's domestic shipbuilding industry, relevant shipping companies and scientific research institutions have carried out a lot of research work in ship intelligence. The Japanese government launched the shipbuilding industry innovation policy named "i-Shipping" to promote the further innovation and strengthening of the shipbuilding industry from four aspects: improving product and service capabilities, expanding fields, improving shipbuilding manufacturing capabilities and strengthening human resources. It aims to apply net and large number to ship operation and maintenance, and comprehensively improve the competitiveness of products by timely feedback on the integration effect of measurement, construction, operation and maintenance. Twenty-seven companies, including the Japan Ship Supporting Association and the Japan Classification Society, carried out the "smart Ship Platform" project research, with a research fund of 1.2 million US dollars. The project aims to develop a ship intelligent control system, combining common on-board monitoring and process data, to develop a unified data mutual platform that can store ship monitoring and operation data, provide various interfaces for ships, navigation & host monitoring, condition monitoring, energy efficiency management, remote maintenance and other functions. The research and development of intelligent ships has been listed as the development focus of the shipbuilding industry in Japan in the next five years.
