Roadmap

The challenge of the future energy carrier for shipping is not only extremely complex but also requires a thorough analysis for each situation. Additionally, implementing the right energy-saving and emission-reducing technologies demands both short and long-term vision, as well as the ability to make future-oriented decisions.

Our role is to guide and advise you in creating a robust roadmap towards emission-free and climate-neutral shipping. We aim to future-proof your existing fleet and prepare your new ship designs with practical and feasible solutions.

Maritime Compliance

Using maritime compliance services ensures that your vessel and company remain fully aligned with the latest environmental legislation. Expert support is available to assist in creating your SEEMP, calculating and improving your ship’s EEXI and CII values. Moreover, these services simplify your ESG reporting, conduct Life Cycle Assessments (LCAs), manage chemicals, and maintain the Inventory of Hazardous Materials (IHM).

CFD Simulations

Conducting CFD simulations can significantly improve the energy efficiency of your ship. This enables not only the analysis of hydrodynamic performance but also the optimization of the propulsion system. Additionally, exploring innovative energy-saving solutions can further improve the energy efficiency of your vessel.

Propulsion Engineering

The services in the field of propulsion engineering include a wide range of solutions to improve the performance, safety, and efficiency of your ship. These include reverse engineering, seakeeping simulations, evaluations of maneuverability and Dynamic Positioning (DP), as well as sound and vibration measurements onboard your ship. In addition, technical calculations can be provided for ice and shock resistance.

Foil Propulsion

Foil propulsion is a technology that involves attaching wing-like or fin-shaped components underneath a ship to generate lift, causing the ship’s hull to rise above the water, minimizing resistance, providing stability, and enabling higher speeds and improved fuel efficiency.

Expertise in hydrodynamics and ship propulsion systems can help in the development and implementation of this technology.

CFD Aerodynamics

Where CFD hydrodynamics services are aimed at simulating and analyzing water flows around and beneath ships, CFD aerodynamics services focus on modeling and analyzing various airflows. This includes optimizing air circulation in HVAC systems, improving wind conditions for safe helicopter operations, examining exhaust emissions in various scenarios, and analyzing smoke dispersion in relation to safety and operational capabilities.

Propulsion Engineering

The services of our partner VICUSdt in the field of propulsion engineering are aimed at one central goal: optimizing the performance, safety and efficiency of ships. The expertise includes:

Reverse engineering: complex existing systems, such as Controllable Pitch Propeller (CPP) blades, are analyzed by disassembly, measurements, and modeling. This allows these systems to be replicated or existing designs improved.

Seakeeping: the expertise in Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) enables realistic simulations of waves and weather conditions. This improves maritime performance and safety through advanced analysis and optimization.

Maneuverability and Dynamic Positioning (DP): advanced CFD simulations are used to assess the ship’s agility and strive for precise positioning and course maintenance, even in challenging marine conditions.

Sound and vibration measurements: noise and vibration levels on board ships are measured and analyzed. In-depth knowledge of hydrodynamics and propulsion systems often allows problems to be identified quickly and effective solutions to be provided.

Ice and shock calculations: the strength of ship components is calculated according to ice class standards and meets stringent shock resistance requirements. Highly accurate technical calculations ensure maritime safety and sustainability.
