Korean Register (KR) has been honored with a nomination for the prestigious 'World LNG Shipping Award 2024' at the 24th World LNG Summit & Awards in Berlin, Germany from December 9-12. This recognition celebrates KR's groundbreaking contributions to innovation and excellence in global LNG shipping.

Korean Register (KR) has partnered with Sinokor Merchant Marine and HD Hyundai Marine Solution (HD HMS) to revolutionize ship maintenance through AI-powered condition-based maintenance (CBM) technology. This pioneering collaboration will transform how vessels' main engines and generators are monitored and maintained.

In support of the IMO's 2050 Net-Zero goal, KR has proposed a methodology for establishing safety zones during hydrogen bunkering — a critical process for hydrogen-powered ships regarded as next-generation zero-carbon vessels. By comparing the risk profiles of hydrogen and LNG, this methodology aims to provide practical guidance, contributing to the development of a robust safety culture for hydrogen bunkering operations.
