Our designs – bringing your shipyard to life
The financial success of the shipyard depends on decisions made at the design stage. Our capability includes process design and the necessary civil, structural, mechanical and electrical systems design. Infrastructure facilities may include: dry docks including dock gates, ship lifts, floating docks, ship launch systems, piers, quays, breakwaters, dredging, fabrication halls, offices. The size of our shipyard design team means that our multi-disciplinary project teams can be assembled to provide their combined experience to all detailed shipyard infrastructure design requirements, improving performance and reducing construction and maintenance costs.

Our informed concepts – your design selection
Our initial concept designs will help you to make informed decisions before committing to the cost of final detailed facility design. The design concepts components are often interchangeable, which means you can combine attributes from two or more concepts to arrive at the concept of your choice.

The preferred concept design derivation:
• Layout plan showing major facilities such as docking facilities, quays, piers, workshops and lay-down areas.
• Sizing of production areas
• Sizing, arrangement and type of workshop buildings
• Sizing and locating docking facilities including structural arrangements
• Routing of services and location of substations and compressor houses
• Overall manning levels
• Overall layout of the shipyard workflows
• Order of magnitude costs

The masterplan includes:
• Final location and sizes of production work areas and waterfront
• Production workshop layouts, levels of technology and operations
• Pre-production operations
• Equipment lists
• Manpower distribution and organisation
• Civil and structural engineering and M&E services arrangements
• Final budget estimates for facility development and equipment
• Shipyard operating cost estimate
• Overall programme for development
