More info
The project required NAS engineers to support owners with the full specification for dry-docking, plan and documentation preparation for class approval. We similarly supported through the system testing and sea trials and carried out inclining tests for both vessels under class supervision. The NAS Engineering department produced intact and damage stability data in line with the applicable requirements and same successfully underwent the Class review and approval process.
Additional tasks in this project included the preparation of updated arrangement plans, fire and safety plans and sprinkler system engineering plans and schematics. All of which were submitted to class and flag for review and approval.
