We design vessels that allow people to develop and thrive in their jobs. Within FKAB Marine Design we work with solutions for enhancing the overall performance of ships, reducing the environmental footprint, new and more environment-friendly fuels and designs that reduce fuel consumption and improve both the load capacity and the cargo handling capacity.Ī vessel is also a workplace where ergonomics, occupational health and safety are important factors. The construction of ships for the future demands a logistical holistic approach as well as optimization of energy efficiency and reduction of environmental impact. Effective detail design is particularly important with regard to re-building, special constructions and smaller projects. We can assist with everything regarding drawings and documents required by authorities and classification societies.ĭuring the detail design stage we quickly and efficiently produce complete designs, project support, calculations and design visualizations. We have long experience of close cooperation with Swedish and with international yards.
We do all calculations and studies necessary, provide projections and documents, and act as mediators. During this phase results of previous work can be established and the shipyard can quote a fixed price.įKAB is your basic design partner during contact with authorities and classification societies. This allows the ship-owner to make a decision on investment or to present the concept to investors and other interested parties.Ī contract design follows on from the concept design and gives the customer an adequately detailed basis for a new-building contract with the shipyard to be signed. The result of a concept design is a GA and a specification that is detailed enough for a shipyard to be able to tender an estimate. A convincing presentation, based on reliable facts and figures, is our goal in the development of a feasibility study.Ī concept design is a revised development of the feasibility design and main dimensions. We visualize and formulate ideas for a preliminary marine design.
Moreover, production workers benefit from a work execution application bringing design and resource management information together to enable the leanest execution of production activities.A thorough feasibility study is often a critical factor for the future success of a project. Bill of Materials management gives shipyards the confidence to accurately order long-lead materials and react decisively to changes in the event of evolving design criteria. When coupled with Unified Project Execution, which brings together proven resource management capabilities of Enterprise Resource Management, Contract Risk Management and 3D Laser Scanning, into an integrated platform which spans the entire process, many of the challenges faced in the shipbuilding process are eliminated.Īn integrated data model ensures that critical material data is entered only once, reducing errors to ensure consistent data in design through to production, and eliminating the need for bespoke middleware. Unified Engineering optimizes marine projects from concept, right through to detailed design, empowering your business be more agile and more efficient. With a solid base of accurate and reliable data, seamless fabrication and construction activities, supported by a fully connected workforce, enable projects to be delivered on-time and on-budget. AVEVA’s Digital Ship Development approach empowers owner/operators to build a true 3D digital twin of their marine asset, allowing multi-discipline teams to collaborate in real-time, increasing engineering efficiency, data maturity and a reduction in project schedule.
