MHI and Imabari Shipbuilding to Establish JV For Designing and Marketing LNG Carriers

MHI licenses machinery to Imabari

For energy-saving vessels with Imabari's strong cost competitiveness Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Imabari Shipbuilding have signed a technological collaboration agreement on containersips.The initiative aims to combine MHI's technological capabilities in the development of energy-saving vessels with Imabari's strong cost competitiveness.The agreement will see both MHI and Imabari delilver greater flexibility in accommodating bulk orders for the construction of multiple ships of the same design.The three-year collaboration agreement encompasses all containership, without setting limitations on container carrying capacity or propulsion systems. The two companies will consider the appropriate ship type, propulsion system and other technological features to match shipowners' needs, and propose the optimum solution.Given the current trend toward adoption of international marine transportation rules for reducing environmental burdens, coupled with continuing fuel price escalation, demand by shipowners for more energy-saving vessels is increasing significantly.In particular, many large containerships are now powered by marine diesel engines using heavy oil fuel, which emits much more carbon dioxide (CO2) than other fuel types.In response MHI has developed various differentiating technologies to meet the needs of customers. These include technology enabling use of liquefied natural gas (LNG), which is more environment-friendly, as fuel for a ship's propulsion system and the Mitsubishi Air Lubrication System ...
