Nikkiso Clean Energy & Industrial Gases Group (Nikkiso CE&IG Group), a part of the Nikkiso Co., Ltd (Japan) group of companies, is proud to announce yet another expansion of their manufacturing capabilities for the growing Marine market. With this expansion, they have become one of the largest manufacturers providing localized assembly in both Busan Korea and Hangzhou China. This expansion represents their commitment to and support of the growth of the Asian shipbuilding industry.
Its Hangzhou China facilities are now equipped to manufacture and deliver marine skids and provide full integration and assembly in-house. This allows for greater quality control and reduced cost for their customers. The new, larger facility in Korea provides full-system Marine solutions. Together, these facilities now provide full localization for design, engineering and manufacturing.
As a unified Nikkiso Group, the firm is the only company that offers the core technology components completely inhouse. It provides fully integrated turnkey fuel system solutions, cargo handling solutions and complex LNG missions. Through its China facility, it can now offer in-country full string testing and provide full fuel gasket testing to ensure meeting engine requirements. Their service capabilities in China and Korea have also been expanded with additional service offerings, long-term service agreements and more field service specialists.
“We are proud to be helping lead the way in the LNG powered Marine market and providing significant benefits to our Marine customers. Nikkiso CE&IG will now be able to provide complete systems and support our customers with a complete factory supported solution,” according to Peter Wagner, CEO of Nikkiso CE&IG.
Marine continues to be a major focus of the Group, and this expansion provides a strong support structure for future growth. The locations also eliminate the need for ocean freighting for shipment delivery, resulting in shorter delivery times to their customers.
