OMAE 2025 in Vancouver, Canada on June 22th

Join us at OMAE 2025 in Vancouver, Canada on June 22-24th. We have two speakers and two research papers:

Are you interested in discovering how simulation tools can revolutionize ice model testing?

Dr. Hanyang Gong from Aker Arctic Technology Inc will present their research paper, “A potential application of DEM-CFD coupling method for brash ice model testing.”

Witness a showcase that demonstrates the power and potential of the coupled DEM-CFD solver to simulate the interaction between ships/offshore structures and ice in scenarios with significant hydrodynamic effects.

Don’t miss this opportunity to explore cutting-edge technology!

Discover how international carbon intensity regulations challenge winter navigation systems in freezing waters.

Ivan Mazanikov, Project Engineer at Aker Arctic Technology Inc will present the paper, “The Effect of Icebreaker Assistance on the Attained CII of a Merchant Ship Operating in the Northern Baltic Sea”.

This study explores how ice-going capabilities and icebreaker support influence the Carbon Intensity Indicator (CII) of merchant ships, revealing critical insights into the limitations of current IMO frameworks.

Be part of the conversation shaping the future of sustainable shipping in ice-covered regions. Attend the session and engage with the latest thinking on energy efficiency of ice-going ships.
