Samsung Heavy Industries : SHI receives technical certification for smart failure diagnosis system

? Approval in principle (AiP) from ABS at KORMARINE 2023

IoT used to diagnose failures in real time and predict timing for maintenance

? Expansion of network in the academic industry expected through organization of SVESSEL CBM technology seminar

Samsung Heavy Industries has announced its participation in "KORMARINE 2023 (International Marine, Shipbuilding, Offshore, Oil & Gas Exhibition)" to be held at BEXCO in Busan from the 24th to the 27th. The company will showcase, during this event, its smart, digital, and environmentally friendly technologies.

On the 25th, especially, an AIP certification will be awarded by American Bureau of Shipping (ABS) to Samsung Heavy Industries for SVESSEL CBM, a Condition Based Maintenance system. This system utilizes IoT and AI technologies for remote analysis of vibrations and electrical signals from critical ship equipment. Enabling real-time failure diagnosis and maintenance timing prediction, SVESSL CBM is already in use on LNG carriers currently under construction by Samsung Heavy Industries.

On the same day, the company will host a technical seminar, SVESSEL CBM Partners Day, inviting experts from equipment suppliers, universities, research institutions, and classification societies. In the seminar, Samsung Heavy Industries will present case studies on failure diagnosis and discuss the direction of data-driven maintenance system development, fostering a collaborative network that involves industry, academia, and research.

Hyun-joe KIM, vice president of SHI's autonomous ship research center, expressed, "By receiving ABS certification for SVESSEL CBM technology, Samsung Heavy Industries has gained recognition for the reliability and competitiveness of our smart failure diagnosis technology. We will further enhance our participatory smart maintenance platform in the future."
