Chairman Kwon Oh-gap of HD Hyundai stayed in Ulsan, which fell under the influence of Typhoon Khanun, the 6th typhoon, on the 10th to inspect the preparedness site and encourage employees.

HD Hyundai announced that Chairman Kwon, who was on vacation, has been stationed in Ulsan since the 9th, leading the typhoon response on-site together with HD Hyundai Heavy Industries Vice Chairman Han Young-seok and President Lee Sang-gyun, who were on emergency standby.

Kwon Oh-gap, Chairman of HD Hyundai, is visiting the Integrated Control Center on the morning of the 10th to check the typhoon situation.

Chairman Kwon urged, "Although it is a powerful typhoon, we can minimize damage depending on how well we prepare, so please maintain vigilance until the very end."

HD Hyundai Heavy Industries, located adjacent to the sea and characterized by shipbuilding with many steel structures such as the Goliath crane, which are greatly affected by wind and waves, is focusing multifaceted and company-wide capabilities to prevent typhoon damage.

While tracking the typhoon's path in real time, the company issued the highest level of the four-stage typhoon risk rating, ‘Severe,’ and is operating the ‘Company-wide Typhoon Emergency Response Committee’ and the ‘Typhoon Situation Room’ to ensure thorough damage minimization. Additionally, a total of seven vessels, including two warships, were moved to safe harbor, and mooring ropes of ships under construction were reinforced to prepare for strong winds.
