Interesting! I am a Machinery and Equipment Tester at an American shipyard, we have Korean equipment dealers coming through all the time! The vendor representatives almost always bring Soju as a gift, but as drinking is absolutely not an acceptable part of work culture here so my senior engineer has a closet full of dozens of bottles collected over the years, though rumor is the higher ups raid it when we are all out on sea trials! We install a lot of Korean build equipment and from experience I can say it is all strong and reliable but also about as cost cut as physically possible. Davit hoisting wires dont come on spools, they come in a sack. If a support bar can be made of a bolt welded in place, it will be. And if you didnt specify you need all accessories included with each unit rather than one for an order of dozens you wont get them! I dont mean that in a negative way, it is always fit for purpose and I admire the savings. Though I do hear many dark rumors from our representatives that visit the korean yards.

Apart from the wage problems there's also the problem that there are massive alternative job opportunities elsewhere in South Korea. Skilled welders for example are hired massively at the constructions sites of gigantic Samsung fabs under construction at Pyeongtaek. Since they are way better paid than in shipyards, it's a nobrainer that they are leaving for better jobs. Marine engineers are also leaving to growing aerospace sector like that of KAI, which is undergoing some major defense related programs, since the fluid dynamics and structural mechanics are very similar.

It is well known to Koreans that in the 1960s, Ju-Young Chung, the founder of the Hyundai group, won ship orders from Europe when he did not have any shipyard. He showed a field in Korea to the buyers and said, "We will build the shipyard here to make your ship”.

So that's how my uncle, who was a naval engineer working for the main Basque shipyard, Euskalduna, lost his job: while Korea heavily subsidized their industry, here the slogan was exactly the opposite: dismantle state industry... Now we're little more than a tourist destination. Sad.

I never thought I’d see a picture of my house in a video on Korean Shipbuilding 😮

In Korea , the population is large and the farmland area is too small, so the country can operate only when the industry is developed. Wheat and corn depend mostly on imports. There are too few resources and most of them rely on imports of oil, gas, and coal. Even if there was no domestic demand, we had to make something and export it. Agriculture is necessary, but not much labor. One tractor replaces 200 workers. Steel mills were being built and steel was pouring out. Something had to be made and exported. The shipbuilding industry was the source of demand for millions of tons of steel. At that time, Korea had a lower national income than the African average. Chung Ju-young is a great giant. He is the father of Korean industry. The 260,000-ton tanker was built without any experience. kzread.info/dash/bejne/mYhn2LV7eqzMkrA.html

Success of Korean shipbuilding industry is great inspiration to other developing countries. With right mix of ambitious and visionary businessmen, government policy, and hardworking people, they archived great feat, unthinkable for small, poor developing country, 70's South Korea '. Kudo to Korean people. Shipbuilding is one of the most complex industries to master and succeed. It takes well-coordinated endeavor of whole national industry, even for large country. Shipbuilding itself is no so profitable business due to pierce international competition, but mastering such complex feat can lead to competitiveness on other complex advanced industry like car manufacturing and semiconductor industry, important gateway for developing country to advance to developed country. Hyundai conglomerate succeeded in all three industries, Hyndai shipbuilding, Hyndai automobile, Hyndai steel mill, and former Hynix semiconductor, though Hynix is sold to other Korean conglomerate. Hyundai even make modern main battle tank, K-2 Black Panther, exported to Poland recently.

My great grandfather founded a shipyard. It was the first of it's kind in The Netherlands: producing inland fishing vessels out of steel. The shipyard grew and grew until it's final demise in 2012. From what I gathered, the most important factors for the succes (or failure) of a shipyard are technology and market. We see the weight of shipbuilding shift from continental Europe to the UK to the USA to Japan to South-Korea and now to China, whenever there's a technological breakthrough and a shift in market. Our shipyard fared well, because the Japanese didn't bother themselves with European inland vessels and the Eastern-European steel mills (and their cheap labor) was safely behind the Iron Curtain. This all changed when the Chinese gotten technology from the Japanese (and improved it) and saw that there's a market for ships to ply the far-flung European rivers. There's no turning back. I often hear policymakers mumble about 'the good old days' and bringing shipbuilding back to Europe. But the gap in technology and knowledge is as large as saying that Europe should be having their own TSMC. Literally. I hear the French and the Danes are making strides, but they asked the Koreans to teach them modern shipbuilding. But unless they also improve and innovate something new, they'll be losing the torch of shipbuilding to another one. Last I heard is to look out for Vietnam.

SoKo only produce cheaper cargo & merchant ships for domestic consumption and earns more from value added service export from servicing the ships including naval ships and now making naval ships and investing more onto green energy transporters beating Chinese competitors. SoKo knows their ship building won't last long, so they're already trying to downsize and utilize robotics and absorbing more European ship companies and engineers for more sophisticated ships.

While East Asian shipbuilders dominate cargo ships, European shipyards still dominate the more specialised cruise ship and large ferry segment. Other countries with expensive labour control their own niches as well, such as the two Australian companies that have a monopoly on the big 40 knot catamarans that carry trucks, cars, and 1000+ passengers. So it's not as simple as saying East Asia builds the most ships, there are quite a few segments where they have no presence at all.

The US does have the Jones Act to preserve a minimal amount of domestic commercial shipbuilding capacity, though. Also, the USA will always retain its military ship building capacity.

And no, dont get the Chinese to build US navy ships lol, the Chinese navy is mostly made up of 1970s era US ships that were sold off at the end of their american service life (the current old fleet oilers are doomed to this as well). In addition to the fact that US navy vessels have to be made in the us, from parts sources entirely within the US. This is standard for all defense industry projects, all in country, in house.

quay is pronounced key

Thanks but the general rule of thumb in English is to pronounce a word as you read it. That's why there's no accent marks in English. So Key West, FL is pronounced as "Key" not "Quay". How do you pronounce Niger, Africa? "Ney-ger". Same with "Quay", it's Key. And so on. Thumbs up if you lerned something.

Even though Korean ship building industry is dominating, still most of the profits go to European companies who hold crucial patents.

Korea doesn’t dominate shipbuilding market. It’s China which gets 49% of the total shipbuilding orders in 2022.

@haha-eg8fj Yes by the number of ships, but not by tonnage.

Difficult business to make a profit.

US Shipbuilding has LESS market share that the one of Poland or even of Nigeria, so waht does this tell us about the 'domination of the seas' according to Mahan in respect of the 'Old and new Superpowers' in the world?!

Thank your corrupt Unions.

IMO this implies usa shipbuilding requires severe depression in the usa. Hmmn, Great Depression helped make America the great ww2 factory

"Quay" and "key" are indeed homophones. That's a tricky one.
