[REVIEW] GORGON PROJECT LPG PLANT - HYUNDAI HEAVY INDUSTRIES


One of the valuable resources in Australia is Fossil Gas. Especially it is found in the northern side of sea coast. This Gorgon project is one of the biggest scale of gas project in Australia. (Photo from hhi.co.kr)

Extracting valuable resource is important business to maintain and advance the civilization. In this point of view, the fossil fuel stores concentrated solar energy, and the human uses it to get the compressed energy which can be extracted in a short period with magnified power.

LPG plant is the facility to refine and store the gas. Ground-based plant can be built at the lower budget, than the offshore LPG plant in many points. Hyundai Heavy Industries Co., Ltd. (HHI) applied offshore plant technology to Ground-based plant, and won Gorgon LPG PLANT PROJECT which is the biggest single project in HHI's history. Gorgon project site is located at Barrow Island, the northwest shore of Australia.

This project is operated by Chevron and ExxonMobil, and it consists of 48 Plant modules weighing 190,000 tons, and is expected to be delivered until 2013 by HHI. LPG Plant Module technolgy was originally applied for HHI's Offshore Plant, but it is firstly applied to Gound-based plant, for this technology greatly reduce field labor works, and lower the cost while acquiring better quality by standardized procedures in factory environment.

[REVIEW] MUSASHI SOY PROTEIN POWDER LOW FAT CHOCOLATE 350G


I have exercised VEGETARIAN diet near nearly for 9 months. Before 9 months ago, I rarely had beef or pork for nearly 1 year. Sometimes I had meat by mistake, I tried my best to keep vegetarian menu. The reason I chose vegetarian diet is because it reduces the time to cook and saves money, as well as it is good for health. Furthermore to keep my body in the best health condition with green diet, is an important duty to God, for my body is the tool and place where the Spirit of God gives inspiration to achieve God's works.

But the problem with such diet is the lack of protein in food. Because I quit having milk, eggs and cheese recently, not much various protein sources are available for me. Recently I found I am losing my hair. If protein supply is not sufficient, many types of symptom start to appear. It takes more time for a wound or a cut to be healed. And finger nail gets thinner. Hair becomes thinner, even lost. Also protein does important role to make the elements of blood , which are needed to protect body and destroy viruses and repair the damaged or aged body cells.


So I had canned beans, and it surely works well, giving quite amount of energy. Later I tried this MUSASHI SOY PROTEIN. MUSASHI is the given name of renowned Japanese Ronin - Miyamoto Musashi who was swordsman, battle strategist and artist. He is well known for his excellent swordsmanship in duels of the Mideaval time of Japan. [1] MUSASHI has been frequent subject material for Japanese martial art fictions. He is said to have trained by himself until he got the high level of swordmanship in his age. And this historical brand name MUSASHI encourages the people who train their body, dreaming to achieve the high level of physical capability.

This product helps to get protein in a cutting-edge way. This product has concentrated SOY protein, and reduced the amount of material mass enough to refill the necessary protein amount for body. Also this product helps to repair the damaged muscles after harsh physical training and weighting, as well as it causes muscle to grow.

The taste is a little like soft chocolate oatmeal, but quite pleasant after finishing 1 cup. Inside of the product is a spoon which is useful to measure the amount exactly. I make drink with this MUSASHI SOY PROTEIN POWDER before I start daily exercise. And surely it gives better power and efficiency of muscle in time of exercise. I believe this product is opening the way to future food, which helps the health more efficiently while saving the space, time, fuel and wasted byproduct of crops.

Also the customer can buy highly quality-managed and ingredient-controlled food product, which gives less chance to contact harmful chemicals and FATS. Also the customer can exactly control the amount of protein for each day or each meal.

New food technology would help human to reach superior ability which gives better concentration to work, better memory, and enhanced physical capability. I want to experience more advanced food products from MUSASHI and other manufacturers which seek to find the alternative advanced source of nutrition.

[REVIEW] NAVER - KOREAN PORTAL AND SEARCH ENGINE


NAVER is the internet portal service company which covers very broad commercial fields, including advertisement, shopping, internet phone, classified postings, email, blog, and game, news service. (photo from naver.com)

Here I want to describe what kind of influence NAVER's service gave to my life since I started to use internet for job, study, entertainment and communication.



(image from www.navercorp.com)
The most frequent service I use with NAVER is email service. This service has evolved since the year 2000, and now I want to believe the functions of this email system is close to the world's best. I tried the email system of many famous international portal, but NAVER provides most time-saving tools to manage emails and classify them. Also NAVER provides very easy function to download whole emails from mail server to PC. (capture from mail.naver.com)

NAVER integrated email system with CONTACT management system and user can send notification SMS immediate after he sends email. 

The most important protection of NAVER's service to remember is high level of security protection. IP hijacking is the hacking method that steals the IP of victims who logged in the portals, and uses this logged-in ID to pick the privacy information or get the emails, even without need to acquire his password. Also when illegal login trial happens, it blocks IPs or it requests verification by phone SMS. If IP address is changed during user's activity in the NAVER' service, the system asks the password again to kick out the IP hijackers.


The most benefitted service of NAVER was classified posting service, called CAFE. This cafe is membership based posting service. I mainly used this classified posting service for short-term project contract searching, and to sell my new or used items. Surely I made quite money from these classified service, by contracting projects, selling items and comparing prices.

The most useful tools of NAVER were the language dictionary service. It is most monumental works of NAVER, because such methods greatly changed the method to learn language fastest ever in the history. In English dictionary, it updates most newly made terms every day. So if I cannot find a new term in English news service from traditional dictionary, I should search in NAVER English dictionary. Another impressive works of NAVER dictionary is Japanese dictionary which I got much help to enhance the understanding for Japanese language. Chinese dictionary, German dictionary and Russian dictionary is also quite useful to study those languages. Recently NAVER added French dictionary, and it gives quite challenge to restart study of French language. (capture from jpdic.naver.com)

Also NAVER started to support Mongolian dictionary, Vietnamese dictionary, Turkish dictionary and Spanish dictionary. I expect to see the more languages such as Arabic, Norwegian, Swedish and Finnish would be added. To have an electronic dictionary was a great dream when I was in middle school. Such dream was beautifully achieved by NAVER's language service.


The most inspirational service of NAVER is ASK service called JISIK-IN. In this special posting place, user can post any questions and the people who have either casual knowledge or professional knowledge to the question, can answer to the question. And this system greatly stimulates the sharing of useful information and makes collective intelligence made by a great number of people. Sometimes, I could get quite valuable information for the topics I want to know. Also I answered 50s of questions in this posting, in the field of German language, English language, Electronics, computer software and religions. (capture from kin.naver.com)



The NAVER's service in which I spent most money, is online Movie streaming service. I purchased 30s of movies for download or watching online in the portal's website. But if the movie file is moved to other media, it cannot be played. It is great problem, but I enjoyed this service much. It was one of the most advanced entertainment business which enables people to purchase movies easily and in a lower price, as well as protects intellectual properties of movies. (capture from movie.naver.com)


Another entertainment service by NAVER is an online game service called HANGAME. I sometimes enjoyed TETRIS with other online gamers and also I purchased special coupon to extend the daily time limit of free gaming of TETRIS. It was quite interesting experiences, even though I came to rarely do this game service recently for I am very busy recently.

Finally BLOG, about 5 years ago, I did much posting for news articles in my BLOG every day. But I quit it. Recently when I did searching in NAVER, many useful and interesting information was found in other people's blog in NAVER. 


And NAVER's membership information is very easy to understand and manage each items, saving time to find how to access needed information.

The most unfortunate thing is that NAVER is available only in Korean. Recently it started service in Japanese. If I have more time, I would like to remind my memory with NAVER.

God gave today a special word for NAVER. God said, NAVER provides precious service, something like sapphire stone shown in the firmament, having the appearance of the likeness of the throne of God. 

I expected to see further advanced technology and service to speed up the development of human mind, and to save costs by sharing information, and to enhance the ideology and system of the world, from NAVER's service.

[REVIEW] World's largest FPSO - HYUNDAI HEAVY INDUSTRIES


  Technology becomes Masterpiece    

(photo from Hyundai Heavy Industries' TV advertisement)This 'GOLIAT FPSO' has a extraordinary shape which seems to come from the outer space planet. It is the facility to endure the extreme tides.

FPSO stands for Floating Production Storage and Offloading. It is special vessel which can refine a the crude oil pumped out from Offshore plant or drill ship, and store the refined products to transfer to shuttle tank or other place. It is essential facility for oil company to develop deep sea oilfield. 

In Feb 2010, Hyundai Heavy Industries (HHI) became the supplier of the world's largest FPSO plant which costs $1.1 billion, from the Norwegian oil company ENI Norge AS. This FPSO went into construction from Nov 2011, and is expected to be installed at Goliat Field which is at 85 km Northwest from Hammerfest, Norway by the end of 2013.


This 'GOLIAT FPSO' requires cutting-edge technology for highly difficult construction procedures to built cylinder-shaped vessel to endure cold weather and strong tides of Arctic Sea.

The diameter of this Goliat FPSO is 112 meter, and the height is 75 meter. The vessel weight reaches to 52,000 tons. The FPSO can produce and refine 100,000 barrels of crude oil, and 4,000,000 m3 of Liquid Natural Gas, as well as store 1,000,000 barrels of crude oil, which is the half amount of daily consumption of Korea.


HHI has supplied FPSO to Brazil Petrobras in 1996, France Total, US Exxon Mobile and BP of UK. And every year, FPSOs has been built and delivered to the world. HHI has 60% of share in Super-size FPSO which can store more than 2,000,000 barrel of crude oil.


I expect more advanced technology would be invented form Hyundai Heavy Industries, and would help the civilization to advance, saving the world with the innovative ideas and efforts to reach to resources in deep inside of earth. (photo from Hyundai Heavy Industries)

[REVIEW] ASIC GEL KINSEI 5


   ASICS               
   GEL KINSEI 5   

When I was young, I chose low-cost running shoes because I did not have much money. And I could not get enough information about what kind of differences does the major sport shoe vendor provides. 


(ASICS GEL KINSEI 5 : photo from ASICSAMERICA.COM)

As the internet shopping started to share the product features and characteristics from around 2002, I came to get more information about vendor and its appealing points.

Until I started regular running in gyms and inside of my room gym later, I could not have chance to think about what makes difference to reduce pains and stress in body when I run for 30 minutes or 40 minutes in running machines. Especially I experienced quite mustle pain on leg and back when I just started running. Also great pain and stress were caused in my toe and on the sole of foot.

Because someone says this one is better and the other one says that one is better in the blog and product review, the only way to know which vendor and running shoes is best for my running was to purchase the products and compare the feeling and characteristics.

I tried famous brands and I found ASICS has human-friendly product ideas which are near to my needs to reduce pains and maximize the physical capability in running.

I used GT series shoes and it was first model which I experienced ASICS for the first time, and later I purchased ASIC GEL KAYANO 17 limited version specially for Boston marathon events in around 2011. Then next version was this ASIC GEL KINSEI 4.

(GT-1000 : Photo from asics.co.jpGT series gave me good running feels and it was a kind of best experience in my exercising. KAYANO 17 gave more advanced back heel shock absorbsion. GEL KENSEI 4 has firm feeling in standing and running, but it made feel more stability when running.

I need to run in the harsh condition to differenciate the features of each models in more points, but I believe ASICS is inventing new idea to extend the physical capability, preserving the wasted power and protecting the mustles. And I am interested in seeing the future technology to make people to enjoy running and spend more time in sports activity.

(ASIC GEL KAYANO 20 : Photo from asics.co.jp)
The ASICS product design is the one which I get inspirations for running.



A S I C S  =  
 Anima Sana In Corpore Sano = “A sound mind in a sound body.”
A sound spirit dwells in a sound body.

This slogan make us to remind various implications which we should keep in mind in our life.
