KNUD E. HANSEN Engineering & Design
New Vessel Design
Design and engineering of new vessels and offshore structures through concept, tender/contract and basic design, with independent pre-contract advice.
Description
KNUD E. HANSEN designs new vessels of all types and offshore structures. The scope of design and engineering is divided into stages (concept design, tender/contract design, basic design and coordination/integration of detailed design), each adding detail while taking client and regulatory requirements into account. Before a construction contract is signed, the company also offers independent advice on contract negotiations, review of design specifications, planning and cost evaluation.
Key features
- Concept design: vessel description, general arrangement and outboard profile, preliminary lines plan, initial weight estimate, empirical speed and power prediction.
- Tender/contract design: developed so shipyards can price the build, including weight and centre of gravity, speed and power calculation, stability calculations, tank and capacities plan, contract specification, engine room arrangement and electrical load balance.
- Basic design: package for class approval covering hull structure, outfitting, accommodation, HVAC and piping, propulsion and machinery, and electric and automation.
- Support services: planning and cost evaluation, procurement support, shipyard assessments, supplier evaluation, plan approvals, project and contract management, sea trials and delivery, and site supervision.
Applications
Newbuilding projects for shipyards and ship owners, covering vessels of all types and offshore structures.
