HII Hosts South Australia Premier at Newport News Shipbuilding
2024年5月18日 - 4:15AM
Shipbuilder and all-domain technologies provider HII (NYSE: HII)
hosted South Australia Premier Peter Malinauskas at its Newport
News Shipbuilding division today.
The visit was held in support of the trilateral Australia,
United Kingdom and United States (AUKUS) partnership. HII continues
its commitment to supporting AUKUS, which set in motion tasking
across all three countries to determine the optimal pathway to
provide Australia with conventionally armed, nuclear-powered
submarines.
Friday’s visit follows a memorandum of understanding between HII
and the South Australian Government signed in November that
outlines the shared intent to participate in a cooperative working
arrangement — leveraging HII’s international maritime industrial
expertise to prepare South Australia for major shipbuilding
projects.
“It was an honor to see Premier Malinauskas again, this time in
the United States, and demonstrate HII’s long history of workforce
and supply chain development expertise,” said Michael Lempke, who
leads HII’s Australia business. “We look forward to continuing our
commitment to help address critical skills needs, education and
training programs, and supply chain capability in Australia as they
create the infrastructure necessary for building, operating and
sustaining nuclear-powered submarines.”

During the visit Malinauskas emphasized that the collaboration
with HII could help South Australian companies enter the global
supply chain for nuclear-powered submarines.
“I want to ensure South Australian suppliers have a head start
in competing to enter the global supply chain for nuclear-powered
submarines,” Malinauskas said. “Nuclear-powered submarines are the
most complex machines in the world and building these submarines
requires highly technical skills and capabilities. HII, America’s
largest shipbuilder, is at the forefront of this technology — it
was an honor to visit and see their shipbuilding team in
action.”
NNS is one of only two shipyards capable of designing and
building nuclear-powered submarines for the U.S. Navy. HII is the
founding member of the AUKUS Workforce Alliance (AWA), a dedicated
partnership committed to preparing a skilled workforce in support
of all steps of Australia’s optimal pathway to sovereign
nuclear-powered submarines.
