Recently, the “5001″ vessel, which was provided with a complete methanol fuel supply system and a ship security control system by HOUPU Marine, successfully completed a trial voyage and was delivered in the Chongqing section of the Yangtze River. As a methanol fuel vessel successfully delivered by HOUPU Marine and the first methanol-powered demonstration vessel in the Yangtze River Basin, the success of this project marks a significant breakthrough for HOUPU Marine in the field of methanol-powered fuel supply from technology to practice, setting a new benchmark for green shipping.
“5001″ is equipped with a methanol fuel supply system independently developed by HOUPU Marine. This system has obtained CCS classification society certification and possesses core advantages such as high safety, high stability, and intelligent control.
In view of the low flash point, flammability, explosiveness and low toxicity of methanol fuel, HOUPU‘s methanol fuel supply system integrates a number of specialized safety technologies, including nitrogen purging/impregnation systems, leak detection and rapid release functions, and through various pressure stabilizing and flow regulating means, it achieves stable pressure, temperature and flow supply for a long time. In terms of intelligent control, the system supports multi-variable adaptive feedback control, one-click operation and visual interface, remote monitoring and fault diagnosis, voice alarm analysis and other functions, fully meeting the high standards of safety, stability and intelligence required by shipowners.
During the trial voyage, the “5001″ operated smoothly, and the HOUPU methanol fuel supply system performed stably and reliably. The gas supply was precise, and the security control system achieved real-time monitoring and intelligent management of the entire fuel supply process. Its outstanding performance won high recognition from the shipowner and the CCS ship inspection agency, fully verifying HOUPU‘s leading technical strength in the field of clean fuel supply systems.
The successful delivery of the “5001″ methanol fuel vessel not only verified the reliability of HOUPU‘s marine methanol fuel system, but also marked a significant leap for the company in the application of clean energy in ships.
In the future, HOUPU for ships will continue to deepen the research and innovation of methanol, LNG, and other clean fuel supply systems, and with diversified mature gas supply system solutions, it will join hands with more industry partners to jointly promote the shipping industry towards a green, low-carbon, and intelligent transformation.
