Comprehensive range of engineering and management services
We provide our clients with a comprehensive range of design, engineering and management services for vessel newbuildings, conversions and refits. Our extensive capabilities and experience enable us to work with you every step of the way, from the earliest stages of Feasibility Studies and Concept Designs, through to Contract Basic.
Regardless of the size of your maritime project, our expertise qualifies us to provide technical advice, engineering support, contract and project management, supervision, survey and other on-site services to assist you whether it involves research, design, construction, testing, operations or optimisation.
We have a team of dedicated junior and senior naval architects who are involved in every stage of design and throughout the lifecycle phases of a vessel. Our proficiency includes all of the principle elements of naval architecture including hydrostatics, hydrodynamics and structural engineering. Our experienced team consists of individuals from all sectors of the marine industry who bring a unique set of skills and capabilities to the drawing table.
We maintain a strong focus on customized solutions for RoRo and RoPax vessels, special purpose vessels such as turbine installation ships, naval vessels and offshore structures. We also provide a steady stream of designs and technical support for container vessels, tankers, yachts and most other types of ships.
Our passion for ships is clearly evident in the clean lines and balanced proportions of our designs. A good design is where form and function meet with minimal complexity. At KNUD E. HANSEN we go the extra mile to achieve harmonious designs that not only perform better, but are vessels you will be proud to have in your fleet.
With our extensive experience with passenger vessels we understand how interiors need to be arranged to maximise flow and comfort. We work with you to ensure that your corporate values and branding are reflected in both interior and exterior design elements.
Let us show you your new vessel
Our talented designers understand the nuances of ship form and interior design and can use all medium from pencil and paper to computer modelling and rendering to bring your design to life. For that extra impact, let us craft a movie showing your future vessel sailing or loading in port. If a picture is worth a thousand words then a movie is surely worth a million.
Nowhere is our dedication to advancing ship design more evident than with our ShipSpace virtual reality visualisation tool.
Welcome to the future
Step aboard your new vessel in amazing detail and realism. When you can experience design as if you were walking about in real life, you can easily use your experience and intuition.
