ST Engineering has launched its new AI-powered smart shipyard at 55 Gul Road in Singapore, replacing the Tuas Yard, which closes at the end of 2024. The Gul Yard, acquired for SDG95 million, is double the size of its predecessor and features advanced 5G-enabled digital infrastructure. AI technology developed in-house improves efficiency through integrated yard management, predictive maintenance, and real-time monitoring.
The yard, focused on both navy and offshore renewable sectors, will merge with ST Engineering’s Benoi Yard for seamless operations. Safety measures include drones, smart wearables, and hazard detection systems. The company is also investing in sustainable practices with plans to lower carbon emissions by 2034 through the use of renewable energy (RE) sources like ammonia, biofuel, hydrogen, and solar power.
