We create tailor made designs From feasibility study via tendering to contract specification. On the other hand, we serve as independent consultant covering contract negotiations, review of design specifications, planning and cost evaluation for a vessel construction or refit contract.
We create effective and market-leading designs based on the large range of designs - from cargo vessels to naval vessel, from tugs to yachts- that ensures a reliable basis for comprehensive inventive and innovative new designs.
The design is optimized based on the client’s needs and the requirements of the classification society and flag state. Calculations and drawings are fully developed into a design package for class approval. Close coordination with the shipyard is an integral part of this design stage to ensure the client’s objectives will be realized. While the deliverables for this design phase are highly customizable, they typically include the following:
Technical Documentation & Plan Approvals
– General Design
– Hull Structure
– Outfitting & Equipment
– Accommodation
– HVAC & Piping Systems
– Propulsion & Machinery
– Electric & Automation
– Build Specification
Project & Contract Management
Sea Trials & Delivery
Site Supervision & Inspection/Technical Support
In order to avoid the afore-mentioned problems, SEFT Engineering employs a novel approach of creating both basic and functional design. The approach, which has become the standard way of working at SEFT Engineering, uses and relies on principle solutions designed by Main/Conceptual Design Team and further development during the 3D modeling processes by Detail Design Team. Thanks to this approach, SEFT engineers can provide fast and reliable design solutions for cargo vessels, naval vessels, workboats, ferries, mega yachts and offshore vessels.Even though structural 2D plans may be good, the 3D model takes your design to the next level. It allows us to set priorities and take control of the design process from the very beginning. Any issues that may arise can be solved and excluded during early basic 3D design. If you use only a 2D approach, such issues may only pop up during detail design, or even worse, during production. This in turn influences resources, materials and planning.
