What we do

Comprehensive design services

NORTES BLUE offers a wide variety of naval architecture and marine engineering services — from initial concept through to operational support.

Our comprehensive range covers the design, engineering, and analysis of both new and existing vessels, including hull design, structural configurations, machinery, outfitting, electric systems, and interior/exterior arrangements. We create systems that conform to ship owner requirements and all applicable regulatory standards — whether cutting-edge new technologies or established industry standards, we recommend the most appropriate solutions.

Feasibility Study
Thorough assessment of practicality, budget constraints, regulatory compliance, and technical feasibility. We give clients a clear picture of what can be achieved within defined parameters.
02

Refines the vessel concept to a level where shipyards can provide accurate cost estimates. Includes technical specifications, design drawings, calculations, and an interactive 3D model.
03
Contract Project
Technical guidance during shipyard proposal evaluation. We enhance design proposals, assist in technical and commercial negotiations, and finalize technical specifications within the shipbuilding contract.
04
Basic Design
Obtaining approvals from classification societies and national authorities. Includes CFD simulations, preliminary hull form optimization, and model testing oversight.
