Naval Architecture

Naval architecture is a demanding engineering discipline that encompasses the design, construction and repair of marine vessels. MIDs projects involves basic and applied research, design, development, design evaluation and calculations during all stages of the life of a vessel. Naval architecture also involves the formulation of safety regulations and damage control rules and the approval and certification of ship designs to meet regulatory rules and requirements. We offer services at every level of the various design phases, each lead by a team of experienced marine engineers:

• • Preliminary/conceptual design

  • Contractual design

  • Functional design

  • Detailed design

R&D is carried out in cooperation with well known R&D organisations such as MARINTEK/SINTEF, see video to the left.
