Shipbuilding engineering
without a pilot series.
Steel and outfitting · Systems integration · Rules and evidence · Conversion
Shipbuilding engineering has no pre-series. What we design in Hanover usually goes into build as a one-off or in a very small series — mistakes cannot be amortised across unit numbers, they hit schedule and cost directly.
Then there is the rulebook: classification society, flag state and international conventions set the frame, and evidence runs through documentation. Engineering here always means keeping the paperwork fit for approval as well.
Design and outfitting
Steel structure, piping, outfitting components and their attachment. Designed for manufacture — with block construction, welding sequences and assembly order in view.
Systems integration on board
Propulsion, piping, electrics and outfitting meet in tight spaces. We secure installation spaces and routing, and keep access clear for operation and maintenance.
Rules and evidence
Classification society requirements and international conventions shape the design. We work them into the construction and keep the documentation in a state that stands up to review.
Conversion and modernisation
Converting an existing vessel is harder than building new: the as-built state is rarely fully documented and the installation space is given. Surveying, feeding results back into the model and planning the conversion sequence belong together.
What we take on
Work packages,
clearly bounded.
- Steel structure designFrames, bulkheads, decks and foundations in the 3D model, including production documents and nesting.
- Piping layoutRouting, isometrics, pipe class assignment and support concepts — matched to block boundaries.
- Space & clashesSpace reservation, clash checks, access and removal studies for maintenance.
- Evidence & classCalculations, drawing revisions and documentation for submission to the classification society.
- Survey & retrofitAs-built survey, transfer back into the model, conversion sequence and interfaces with the yard.
