During your work you’ll be in close contact with a lead engineer and the client to determine the right direction in the first stage of the project.

In your designs you’ll have a good eye for practical solutions regarding fabrication, maintenance and daily use of the equipment. Together with the (structural) engineers, who focus on calculations and FEM, you’ll be able to adjust your designs and come to the optimal solution for the project. You also will cooperate with our other engineering departments, Vessel Design and Operational Engineering, to make sure the integration with the vessel and workability during execution are taken into account as well.
