In 2001, STI has
established on the purpose of acting as engineering solution
provider knowledge based company. From the beginning, we focused
on the process simulators and dynamic process simulation study
based on rigorous mathematical modeling providing customers with
the dynamic process simulation capabilities.
Increasing awareness on environmentally friendliness and safety,
various types of efficient and cost effective oil water
separation systems for marine and offshore industries have been
developed by STI. Now Research and Development is invested on
the ubiquitous Environment-Management System to Carbon dioxide
Capture and Sequestration System design. Accomplished and
guarantees safe transportation of LNG, STI's ESDS (Emergency
Shut Down System) has been supplied to the major shipbuilding
companies such as Samsung, Hyundai and Hanjin.
STI, collaborated with reliable international organizations and
committees such as IMO, successfully made VDR (Voyage Data
Recorder) and gained a formal approval from the DNV and KR. It
allows recording of important ship data for accident
investigation in order to discover the problems for the future
or take precautions at least.
Since 2004, STI has started new projects in Marine and Offshore
Services and satisfied clients with well defined objectives and
engineering, appropriate resource allocation. We also expanded
ourselves to such areas as fabrication and construction work.
Now, STI is maintaining two shipyards in east and south coast of
Korea constructing Semi-Submersible barge jointly with Tritone
Marine tug and coastal boats and floating docks.
We are confident that STI will be one of the world's top class
shipbuilders as well as a solution provider of marine and
offshore industry for the 21st century through accumulating
technology, maximizing efficiency, improving productivity and
continued renovation and flexibility with integrity and
ingenuity. |

Voyage Data
Recorder (VDR) is a device to record, maintain, and manage
various data available onboard a ship during its voyage. VDR
automatically records voyage data through various data interface
channels to allow in-detail investigation of accidents can be
made using the recorded data. Purpose of a VDR is just like a
"Black Box" on an airplane. Main difference between the two is
the kinds and amount of data recorded; a VDR records much more
types and amount of data than its equivalent on an aircraft.
International Maritime Organization (IMO) set out regulations to
make installation of the VDR on most of the cargo ships and
passenger ships engaged on international voyages. Ships being
built on and after July 2002 have been installing VDRs.
Installation of a VDR on an existing ship may be very costly as
there may be some signals not available nearby where the VDR
will be installed. Simplified VDR (S-VDR. Somtimes it is called
SVDR) is a 'simplified' version of VDR to make the installation
easier by reducing the number of mandatory signals. Existing
ships of over 3,000GT have to install S-VDRs by July 2010.
