Services
Independent engineering services for stability, design and approval – from early design to delivery.
Ship stability from early design to delivery – intact and damage stability calculations, inclining experiments and lightweight surveys, preparation of the stability documentation for approval by the classification society and the flag state. For all ship types: merchant vessels such as cargo ships, container ships, bulk carriers and tankers, cruise and passenger ships, dredgers and hopper barges, fishing vessels and fishing cutters, yachts, naval and government vessels.Intact and damage stabilityInclining experiments and lightweight surveys – required every five years for passenger shipsControl inclining experiments for fishing cutters – every ten yearsGrain stability according to the IMO Grain CodeOptimisation of deterministic and probabilistic damage stability calculationsFreeboard calculationsStability documentation for classification society and flag state
From the first lines plan to the finished hull form.Hull line developmentFine fairing of hull linesHydrostatics and design variantsWeight estimation and weight prognosis in the preliminary design stage
Support on site – for newbuildings and conversions alike.On-site weight management during construction and outfittingHull survey on the slipway (as-built geometry for hydrostatics and approvals)Conversions with change of ship type – from feasibility study to stability documentation and coordination with classification society and flag state
Macro suites for NAPA that standardise recurring calculations: a few inputs produce complete, verifiable output ready for approval.Macro suites for intact and damage stability and loading conditionsApproval-ready standard output for classification society and flag stateDevelopment and maintenance of customer-specific NAPA tools
IMO regulations (SOLAS, MARPOL, IS Code, DR-68), national regulations (SchSV) and naval construction rules (BV 1030) – interpretation, application and coordination with authorities and classification societies.Interpretation and application of IMO regulations (SOLAS, MARPOL, IS Code) and national regulations (SchSV)DR-68 – reduced freeboard for dredgers and hopper bargesNaval construction rules (BV 1030)Flagging-in to the German flag – review of documents, coordination with BG Verkehr (Ship Safety Division, formerly See-BG) and the classification society, evidence in accordance with the SchSV and flag state requirements
