NETSCo’s production engineers take functional design to the next level by incorporating ship design information into a full-scale 3D model of the vessel. They combine all the details of the structural, electrical, mechanical and HVAC systems into one comprehensive model. The result is a computer-generated vessel that can be reviewed early in the design process for safety, maintainability and constructability.
The expertise of the NETSCo engineering network covers a whole range of design activities starting with the basic concept design for the vessel based on regulatory and client requirements. This extends to detailed design, regulatory documentation consultancy, safety and efficiency, as well as the practical operation of the vessel and training for the crew.
Before starting a structural engineering design project, it’s important to have as much information as possible to improve the decision-making process. Our highly skilled and experienced engineers can optimize and analyze a design at an early stage, saving you time and money using Finite Element Analysis (FEA) software.
NETSCo has more than three decades of experience working on ship modifications, conversions, retrofits and upgrades that comply with new regulations or extend the efficiency of existing vessels. Drawing on NETSCo’s experienced naval architecture and marine engineers, we deliver the utmost value that will last for the lifespan of the vessel while working within the guidelines directed by our customers.
The team at NETSCo is environmentally responsible, providing solutions that reduce the carbon footprint of ships in our oceans, lakes and coastal areas. Our compliance engineers meet regularly with governing agencies, that include environmental groups, ports and state agencies.
NETSCo’s broad range of naval architecture and marine engineering services allow us to support your ship from concept through construction to delivery. Our engineers evaluate new and emerging technologies, assessing the potential for use in our clients’ projects.
