Hanwha Ocean is expanding its marine plant standardization strategy to the low-carbon sector based on global classification society certification. This certification is expected to significantly contribute to future competition for marine plant orders.

Hanwha Ocean has obtained Concept Approval (AIP) from the Norwegian classification society DNV for the design system of 'low-carbon standard FPSO (Floating Production Storage and Offloading facility).' Additionally, it secured AIP from the American classification society ABS along with a certificate for its Project Sustainability Execution Plan.

Recently, environmental competitiveness has emerged as one of the primary evaluation criteria in the FPSO market. Global energy companies are strengthening carbon reduction requirements during new project procurement processes, leading major marine plant firms to expand their low-carbon design and sustainability execution frameworks.

Through this AIP, Hanwha Ocean plans to utilize its verified low-carbon design and project execution framework across future client negotiations, bidding, preliminary design, and overall project implementation. Furthermore, the company intends to enhance verified low-carbon technologies into reusable technology packages that can be selected and applied according to specific project requirements. PSEP is planned to serve as the standard sustainability execution foundation for future FPSO projects.

A Hanwha Ocean official, speaking via telephone with this newspaper, stated, "This certification holds significance in that both low-carbon design and the sustainability execution framework have been validated."
