Retrofit Studies

1. 3D Laser Scanning

PSA Marine Bureau’s experienced Engineers perform onboard a highly accurate (±1-2mm) 3D-Laser Scan of the areas of interest and collect information to be used in the next stages of the study.

2. Feasibility Study

Using the data from the 3D laser scan the best possible way to install the new equipment is examined. Multiple scenarios and systems can be examined to conclude to the one that would best suit the vessel and Client’s requirements.  

3. Engineering Study

Using the data from the 3D laser scan the fully detailed 3D model of the new installation is developed. This model will be used to generate the production drawings, material lists & approval drawings.

4. Installation

PSA Marine Bureau’s engineers can attend the vessel’s during system’s installation, to supervise all works and ensure the correct execution and timely completion of the project.

New Building Services

The Plan Approval process for new-buildings is critical for the Classification and Flag State Certification of the ship; it includes (but is not limited to) a thorough examination of all main drawings, scantlings, systems / installations.

 

The proper evaluation of this design package ensures that the design meets the owner’s requirements and complies with International, Flag State and Classification Rules/Regulations.

Our team of naval architects & marine engineers is well experienced in the process of developing detailed construction design drawings; in this regard, they are more than capable to review design packages for new-buildings produced by shipyards.

Our specialists provide the full range of plan approval services ensuring that:

  • Design complies with contract specification, international / shipyard standards and Class/ Statutory requirements;
  • Quality of the design meets the Owner’s specifications/expectations;
  • The design is fit for purpose, not unnecessarily complex and free of potential build issues
  • The design package is properly followed-up, meaning that all correspondence and drawings are monitored, managed and controlled throughout the process.

SERVICES:

  • DESIGN PACKAGE REVIEWS
  • SHIPYARD DRAWINGS REVIEWS
  • CLASSIFICATION SOCIETY SUBMISSION REVIEWS
  • FABRICATION DRAWINGS REVIEWS

New Building Construction Supervision

Site Team:

A site team comprising of experts on Hull, Safety, Machinery, Paint, Electrical & Automation aspects will be set up to fully monitor the project.

 

Building to the Highest Standards

The team will review shipbuilder’s standard practices, working drawings to ensure that Owner’s, specification’s and approved drawing’s requirements are met. Any alteration plans issued during the construction phase will be thoroughly reviewed by the Site Team and PSA Head Office.

Continuous inspections, with methods approved by the Owner. Defects reporting and evaluating solutions.

Witnessing, supervising & assisting all factory acceptance tests, systems’ commissioning & Sea Trials.

 

Owner’s eyes

  • Weekly and monthly progress reports with focus on scheduling and non-conformities.
  • Regular meetings with shipbuilder and Owner’s representatives to evaluate project’s progress.

Non Destructive Testing (NDT)

PSA Marine Bureau offers Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) services for shipboard, industrial, and manufacturing customers. Our inspectors are highly trained to assure compliance with the maritime & industrial requirements.
