  中国航海学会理事会理事长何建中:携手构建航海科创平台 

China is already a big ship manufacturing country, but in the commonly referred to ship manufacturing "three crown" fields, there is a certain extent of "jam neck" problem. For example, the deep sea environment detection, analysis and forecasting capabilities are insufficient, the deep sea navigation equipment independent design and manufacturing shortcomings are prominent, the deep sea navigation and resource development safety guarantee system is lacking, the deep sea technical standards and engineering software are not controllable.  

In particular, there are still breakthroughs to be made in the research and development of far-reaching sea navigation equipment, including large liquefied gas vessels, international cruise ships, deep submergers, polar heavy icebreakers, polar large transport ships, biological resources development equipment and maritime complexes. 

Therefore, it is necessary to establish a coordinated R & D mechanism between government, industry, education, research and application, gather scientific and technological forces and resources to jointly formulate R & D plans, systematically build a far-reaching technological development path and industrial ecosystem for maritime navigation equipment manufacturing and safety protection, and promote the rapid development of technology and industry. 

In addition, in view of the technology maturity, availability, economy, safety and perfection of regulations and standards of new and clean energy such as LNG, batteries, methanol, hydrogen and ammonia, as well as the application of terminal energy use and green power sources in the field of port and shipping, a collaborative innovation platform for energy, ships and shipping should be built. Gather innovative talents, state key laboratories, innovative science and technology enterprises and other scientific and technological resources, combined with the national energy green and low-carbon transformation policy, encourage enterprises to play the role of innovation subjects and creators, break through the problems of large-scale industrial application of new and clean energy in the shipping industry, and improve the transfer and transformation of scientific and technological achievements.
