Ship-owners considering an investment in wind-assisted propulsion are faced with numerous questions. C-Job’s own long-term research, supplemented by additional graduate studies, means that they are the go-to partner for ship-owners looking for independent advice.
C-Job’s new Buckling Tool allows ship structures to be optimised at the earliest stages of Concept Design. It also gives a better understanding of plated structures in Basic and Detail Design. Lead Naval Architect Nikos Papapanagiotou explains how.
C-Job has launched its global sulphur cap Compliance Tool. For ship owners operating in any maritime sector, the tool is an easy-to-use and free way to find out the most effective method of complying with the International Maritime Organization’s global sulphur cap that will come into effect on 1 January 2020.
In April 2018 the United Nations International Maritime Organization (IMO) introduced a strategy to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from shipping. Even though these goals are focused a long way into the future, C-Job’s Technical Director Tim Vlaar picks out some highlights from the company’s portfolio to demonstrate an already proven track record and a truly forward-thinking approach.
C-Job foresees the need for renewable future-proof fuels and has identified ammonia to be one of the high potentials. Therefore, the company is working on concept ship designs integrating ammonia as a fuel reviewing options with both combustion engines and fuel cells.
C-Job’s Research & Development team is using AIS position data to reconstruct a vessel’s operational profile. R&D Engineer Matthys Dijkman: “With this knowledge we can design better vessels that are optimally matched to their operational requirements.”
Our free Webinar ‘The evolution of ship design’. will explore the principles and its potential to transform ship design.
