Ship Design & Engineering

We undertake complete basic and detailed design of ships, backed by experimental studies and advanced software simulations. We have expertise in Finite Element based global and local structural analysis, ship model testing, vessel performance systems and conducting inclining experiments and sea trials.

Designing a ship is perhaps the most rigorous of all engineering problems. It takes a lot of technical expertise, often across many disciplines to design such structures. We have expertise from different disciplines in conceptual, preliminary and detailed ship design. Our aim is to provide best quality services to our valuable clients.

We are involved in ship design activities such as:

  • Concept Design
  • Preliminary Design
  • General Arrangement
  • Resistance and Power estimation
  • Cost Estimation
  • Production / Detailed Design
  • Ship Conversion Design
  • Design Modification
  • Ship Hull Modeling
  • Structural Design

Ships are modified, converted and upgraded to meet the operational requirements of clients.

Main steps of Ship conversion, retrofit and up gradation process:

    • Feasibility Study to meet the Client requirement.

    • Drawing approval from classification society.

    • Yard finalization and Procurement.

    • Preparation of construction drawing and site supervision.

We provide the complete assistance during change of flag state of the vessel, which contains preparation of documents as per the new flag regulations and get them approved from recognized organization (RO) of the new flag state.

Our multi-disciplined team includes a team of qualified, experienced and professional naval architects. We provide detailed analysis on stability, ship motion’s studies, hydrodynamic, as well as hydrostatics, hull girder strength etc.

Our service includes naval architectural activities such as:

  • Hull form optimization & CFD Analysis.
  • Development of lines plan & Offset table.
  • Intact & Damage Stability Analysis (Deterministic & Probabilistic).
  • Propeller design & optimization.
  • Maneuvering & Seakeeping analysis.
  • Draft survey & inclining Experiment.
  • Model test & Sea trials.
  • Resistance & Power Estimation.
  • Rules based Scantling & Steel Renewal Computation.
  • Tonnage, Freeboard & Loading Calculations.
  • Sea fastening calculations.
  • Equipment number calculation.

Vessel Performance analysis can save fuel consumption with timely remedies against increasing added resistance due to weather marine growth and hull surface fouling.  Thus without these performance reports, a ship-owner may have to continually operate his vessels at a required charter speed in the face of diminishing power output and increasing fouling in the hull, resulting in increasing fuel consumptions.

Shoresafe expertise conduct the detailed performance analysis as per the voyage data collected and give the accurate solution to reduce the fuel consumption and improve energy efficiency onboard the vessel.

Inspection & Surveys

Shoresafe have a qualified and experienced team of chief engineers and naval architects to conduct the technical survey and supervision of the vessel during vessel Operation.

Our team is spread worldwide (India, Singapore, Turkey, USA, China, Bangladesh etc.) for technical survey and supervision such as:

  • Hull & Machinery Damage Survey
  • Vessel Pre-Purchase survey
  • Supervision of Repairing & Maintenance
  • Draft/Inclining survey
  • Bunker Survey

NDT is an essential quality assurance and management tool for the maritime and other sectors. It can aid in avoiding failures that might negatively affect security, dependability, and the environment.

Considering that the components being tested don’t need to be taken apart or even put on hold, doing NDT testing is quite convenient. The ease of use and portability of NDT equipment contributes to the effectiveness of the testing methods employed when the device is in use..

Non-destructive testing is done to make sure the materials or components being utilized are in good condition and safe for personnel to use. The outcome of the test will indicate whether the components need to be fixed or if they are safe to use.

The team of professionals at Shoresafe has expertise executing NDT tests using the techniques listed below.

  • Ultrasonics Testing (UT)
  • Liquid penetration testing (LPT)
  • Magnetic particle testing (MPT)
  • Visual Testing (VT)

Sustainable solutions for Green Sector

International Maritime Organization (IMO) has been intensifying their efforts in environmental rule-making in recent years for operational and recyclable vessel. This no doubt drives the entire industry in an inevitable direction – to greener, cleaner and safer solutions. As a result, ships, ports and ship breaking yards are demanded to be more ‘green’ these days.

International Maritime Organization (IMO) has adopted the “Hong Kong International Convention for the Safe and Environmentally Sound Recycling of Ships, 2009” in May, 2009 to prevent, reduce, minimize and, to the extent practicable, eliminate accidents, injuries and other adverse effects on human health and the environment caused by ship recycling. In addition to the Hong Kong convention adopted by the IMO, new regulations on ship recycling “EU Ship Recycling Regulation (EU SRR)” adopted by the European Union on November 20, 2013 and entered into force on December 30, 2013. These regulations specify that all EU-member-state-flagged ships may only be recycled at facilities approved by the EU.

Shoresafe is working continuously for betterment of the Ship Recycling Facilities to meet the standard of Hong Kong Convention. We have expertise for following.

  • Development of Yard as per HKC & EU SRR standards
  • Compliance Monitoring
  • Ship Recycling Plan (SRP)
  • Inventory of Hazardous Material (IHM)
  • Cutting & Dismantling Plan

International Maritime Organization (IMO) has adopted the regulation to reduce the Green House Gases (GHG) emission from ships.

The Energy Efficiency Existing Ship Index (EEXI) is part of the technical approach taken by IMO to improve the operational efficiency of existing ships.

  • Applicable to all ships of 400 GT and above
  • Calculate the attained & Required EEXI based on the empirical formulas as per the IMO guideline MEPC 76.
  • Develop ship specific EEXI technical file
  • Preparation of OMM for ships opting for EPL to comply with EEXI.
  • EEXI improvement factors are EPL, changing fuel type, redesign propeller, installation of shaft generator, energy saving devices, rotor sails & increasing capacity etc.

The Carbon Intensity Indicator (CII) is part of the operational approach that supports the IMO’s objective “to reduce CO2 emissions per transport work, as an average across international shipping, by at least 40% by 2030, pursuing efforts towards 70% by 2050, compared to 2008.”.

  • Applicable to all cargo and cruise ships of 5000 GT and above
  • Calculate the CII Rating as per the IMO guideline MEPC 76.
  • Low rated vessels (“E” or “D” on 3 consecutive years) should develop a plan of corrective actions and the plan should be approved by the Administration or RO
  • Updating enhanced SEEMP for continues improvement of CII rating
