As a global leader in shipbuilding, offshore engineering, construction, wind power and control systems, Samsung Heavy Industries (http://www.shi.samsung.co.kr/Eng/) has achieved unbeatable leadership in the shipbuilding and offshore sector by maintaining a number one share in the drill ship, ultra-large container ship, LNG carrier and FPSO markets.
