Busan, South Korea, 25 September 2020: Daehan Shipbuilding Co . , Ltd ( DHSC ) entered into a Joint Development Project ( JDP ) with ABS Busan to develop a 7,500 M3 LNG Bunkering Vessel. Mr .

In the process of this cooperation, Daehan Shipbuilding will proceed with the main design with ABS' technical support and review, obtain the AIP (Approval in Principle), and use it to accelerate sales and obtaining orders.

In addition, LNG bunkering ships are one of these portfolios, which aims to expand into small gas vessels to flexibly respond to needs of future market and make effective use of company facilities."
