Naval Architecture
Marico Marine can provide Naval Architectural Services covering a wide range of areas.
Whether it’s at the earliest stages of concept development, through to in-service assessments and end-of-life decommissioning,
Marico Marine’s engineers work closely with a range of clients on naval architectural studies, including:
Seakeeping Analysis
Marico Marine has experts experienced in all aspects of Seakeeping Analyses, allowing use of a variety of techniques to improve the safety and operability of your vessels.
Using a variety of seakeeping codes and methods, Marico Marine can support all phases of vessel operations.
From preliminary design studies to select optimal hullforms, through to vessel selection for short term charter, seakeeping studies can be used to ensure that you have the right vessel for the job.
Rig Onloading & Offloading
Marico Marine develops tailored risk assessments for heavy-lift vessels undertaking rig offloads and onloads in ports and harbours.
Such assessments provide Harbour Masters with the regulatory tools needed to introduce weather limits, minimal towage standards, and for the installation of navigational buoys.
Voyage Route Optimisation Service
Marico Marine offers the service of voyage route optimisation to charterers, ship operators and legal firms by comparing optional shipping routes between specified ports. All routes have been verified by Master Mariners as being appropriate for both safety of navigation and environmental protection.
The shortest route options between ports are used to assess the “New Worldwide Tanker Nominal Freight Scale” issued annually by the Worldscale Association.
Ship To Ship Service Provider Assessment Support
Marico Marine provides Subject Matter Expertise to:
STS Service Providers to prepare themselves for third party verification of their OCIMF STS Service Provider Management Self Assessments, and Tanker Operators to verify STS Service Provider Management Self Assessments for the purpose of potential contractor evaluation and approval.
Emissions Analysis
Marico Marine can develop animations to illustrate the emission of pollutant species from shipping.
Using the IMO's bottom-up greenhouse gas emission methodology, Marico Marine's approach determines quantities of significant emission species from commercial shipping, as well as allowing total emissions across a selected area to be quantified.
