On December 3, at the China Maritime Exhibition (Marintec China 2019), which opened in Shanghai, ABB comprehensively demonstrated its digital technology, intelligent solutions and full life cycle services in the field of shipbuilding and offshore engineering to improve shipbuilding and operating companies. Provide strong support for performance, safety, reliability and green development.
Electrification, digitalization and smart interconnection are closely integrated, sweeping the maritime industry and transforming traditional water transportation methods. As a major shipbuilding country, China is facing a critical period of transformation and upgrading of the shipbuilding industry. Accelerating digital and intelligent transformation and meeting higher demands for efficiency and environmental protection have become an inevitable choice for China's shipbuilding industry to achieve high-quality development. ABB has developed and applied a large number of innovative solutions in the field of ship digitalization and intelligence, combining technological advantages, industry experience and localized services to actively support China's shipbuilding industry from becoming large to strong and transforming into an industrial chain.
At this year’s China Maritime Exhibition, ABB marine systems, marine electric propulsion systems, turbocharging digital solutions, ship energy storage systems, ABB Ability ™ Joint Operation Center, intelligent motors and transmissions, intelligent power distribution and other innovative products and solutions became the focus of the on-site display, attracting visitors to stop and exchange views.
This exhibition showcased ABB’s star product in the marine field, the Azipod® pod-type electric propulsion system. This system is a gearless, rotatable pod-type electric propulsion system. Its electric motor is suspended in an underwater pod outside the hull. It can increase fuel efficiency by up to 20% and significantly improve the maneuverability of the ship. It has now been It is widely used in luxury cruise ships, icebreakers, cargo ships sailing in ice areas, and offshore living platforms. my country's first self-built polar scientific research icebreaker "Snow Dragon 2", the first domestic luxury cruise ship, and the "Science" ocean research vessel all use the Azipod® electric propulsion system.

Also unveiled was the ABB Ability™ marine system, which provides a complete set of solutions including navigation perception, navigation control and decision-making for the new generation of smart ships and unmanned ships. The system uses intelligent sensors and new computer vision technology to achieve real-time visualization and perception of the ship environment, helping operators predict the ship's navigation status and avoid potential collision risks, comprehensively improving navigation efficiency.safety and operational efficiency. Based on this ship control technology, the "Suomenlinna 2" ice-class passenger ferry successfully completed the historic world's first remote unmanned sea trial in Finland at the end of 2018; this system will also be used in a Singaporean maritime company to help It develops autonomously sailing ferries.

In this article Among the turbocharging products and solutions on display, the upgraded ABB Ability™ Tekomar XPERT digital solution applied to the fleet attracted particular attention. As a set of intelligent software for engine performance analysis and diagnosis, it realizes digital integration from equipment, systems to the cloud, and can provide performance evaluation and comprehensive analysis of engines across the entire fleet, thereby improving engine efficiency and reducing fuel costs. Users operate according to the analysis and specific suggestions provided, and each ship can usually save 0.5 tons to 3 tons of fuel per day. Currently, the solution has been installed on more than 1,800 ships.

ABB provides comprehensive measurement and analysis products for the shipping industry to help optimize ship operation efficiency and reduce operating costs. At this maritime exhibition, ABB exhibited measurement and analysis products for various applications such as ship ballast water measurement, fuel energy consumption management, and gas emission monitoring. Take the GAA610-M ship exhaust gas continuous emission monitoring system as an example. It includes a complete system such as sampling probes, sample transportation pipelines, pretreatment systems and gas analysis systems. It has been certified by multiple classification societies and can help ship users Effectively monitor exhaust emissions to better meet the stricter "sulfur limit order" that will be officially implemented by the International Maritime Organization from 2020.
