[Alpha Biz=(Chicago) Reporter Kim Jisun] Hanwha Ocean has won a next-generation naval frigate worth 8,300 billion won, beating HD Hyundai Heavy Industries.
The penalty points that HD Hyundai Heavy Industries received according to its history of unfair practices had a decisive impact.
HD Hyundai Heavy Industries was ahead of Hanwha Ocean in overall evaluation such as technology, but its ranking was reversed with 1.8 penalty points.
HD Hyundai Heavy Industries will retain 1.8 points over the next three years after being convicted last year of illegally filming Hanwha Ocean's KDDX concept design data.
The Ulsan-class deployment 3 project is to build 6 frigates, and this 5th and 6th are the last supplies.
The two companies will face off again in the next-generation Korean destroyer (KDDX) project next year.
The KDDX, worth a total of 7.8 trillion won, is the first domestic destroyer project to be made with domestic technology from the hull to various armaments.
It is analyzed that Hanwha Ocean has established an advantageous foothold first with this order. HD Hyundai Heavy Industries is also confident in its technological superiority, so fierce competition between the two companies is expected in the future.
