The shipbuilding industry is a modern comprehensive industry and a strategic industry for military civilian integration, directly related to national core interests such as ocean development, energy transportation, and national defense security. In 2024, China's shipbuilding industry ranked first in the world for 15 consecutive years with 55.7% completion, 74.1% new orders, and 63.1% held orders, becoming a key driver of the global shipping industry's green transformation.

2、 Technological Breakthrough: From 'Leading in Scale' to 'Leading in Technology'

Green Ship Revolution

LNG powered ship: Hudong Zhonghua Shipbuilding delivered the world's largest 271000 cubic meter LNG ship, holding 20% of global orders and breaking South Korea's monopoly.

Alternative fuels: Jiangnan Shipbuilding has developed the world's first ammonia fuel powered container ship, while Dalian Shipbuilding Heavy Industry has taken on orders for methanol dual fuel mineral sand ships, with technology covering the full spectrum of clean energy sources such as LNG, methanol, ammonia, and hydrogen.

Energy saving technology: widespread use of air lubrication systems and sail propulsion devices, resulting in a low evaporation rate of 0.085% for the Shanghai East China LNG ship and a 30% reduction in daily gas consumption per ship.

Intelligent upgrade

Digital twin: Waigaoqiao Shipbuilding "Intelligent Shipyard 4.0" realized equipment interconnection through 5G+industrial Internet, and the construction period was shortened by 20%.

Automated production: The efficiency of the welding robot cluster at Shanghai Shipbuilding Technology Research Institute has been improved by 60%, and the inspection cycle of the intelligent inspection platform of China Classification Society has been compressed to 3 days, with an accuracy rate of 99.6%.

Intelligent Management: Yangtze River Shipbuilding Industry launches "Ship Lifecycle Management", increasing customer renewal rate to 62%; The remote fault diagnosis service revenue of China Shipbuilding Power Group's "Intelligent Power Package" accounts for 25%.

Breakthrough in high-end ship types

Large container ship: Jiangnan Shipbuilding's 24000TEU container ship is equipped with an air lubrication drag reduction system, which reduces fuel consumption per container by 8%.

Special vessels: Guangzhou Shipbuilding International has formed the "three special" brands of liquid cargo ships, roll on/roll off ships, and polar ships, with a cumulative order of 40 Huangpu Wenchong 1900TEU container ships.

Marine engineering equipment: CIMC Raffles has a market share of 35% in marine engineering equipment, and the value of orders for methanol dual fuel mineral sand ships from Beihai Shipbuilding exceeds 1.3 billion US dollars.
