Client approached A Squared because of our expertise in Naval Architecture and vessel new build.
The client was building a new, groundbreaking 90m dual-fuel SOV for use in servicing the growing offshore wind market and required assurance from an independent consultant that the design was de-risked and they were getting what they paid for.
A Squared provided Plan Approval services to the client for all structural and Naval Architectural aspects of the project.
The plan approval process was streamlined, identifying design issues and potential conflicts early and avoiding costly late-stage modifications.
Our review kept the design aligned with the Owner’s technical requirements, intended operations and good engineering practice, while also considering Class and regulatory requirements. This reduced operational and project risk, improved constructability and maintainability, and helped the design progress smoothly through construction and Class Approval.
