HD Hyundai Heavy Industries and Bureau Veritas Launch JDP for Real-Time Onboard Guidance System to Prevent Excessive Rolling for Container Ships

HD Hyundai Heavy Industries Co., Ltd (HHI) and Bureau Veritas Marine & Offshore (BV) have launched a Joint Development Project (JDP) for a Real-Time Onboard Guidance System which helps prevent  excessive rolling for container ships.

The system  is designed to evaluate the roll stability in container ships during actual operations. As maritime logistics environments grow increasingly complex, the ability to monitor and assess a ship’s dynamic stability in real time has become ever more critical.

At the same time, containerized cargo safety remains a key issue that the maritime industry shall address collectively. Strengthening collaboration and advancing technological solutions are essential to better manage operational risks, prevent cargo losses and damage, and enhance overall safety standards across the global shipping sector.

Under this JDP, the dynamic stability of HHI’s container ships will be reviewed in accordance with BV’s requirements and relevant regulations. The initiative also aims to validate the effectiveness of preventing excessive rolling through the application of HHI’s Real-Time Onboard Guidance System, further enhancing operational safety and performance.

Hong-Ryeul Ryu, Senior Executive Vice President at HD Hyundai Heavy Industries, Co., Ltd., said: “By working together with Bureau Veritas on this Joint Development Project, HHI’s Real-Time Onboard Guidance System will provide shipowners with practical solutions to prevent excessive rolling and protect their cargo. This collaboration highlights HHI’s capability to deliver highly reliable vessels, helping ensure that our container ships operate with the highest standards of safety even in severe weather conditions.”
