Marine and Shipbuilding
Hull, outfitting and systems designed together, with hydrodynamics proven in simulation before the model basin.
From concept hull to delivered vessel
Shipyards, naval architects and offshore fabricators in the Middle East build vessels and platforms that must meet class rules and tight delivery dates. NomuTech supports them with Designcenter NX for hull, structure and outfitting design, Simcenter STAR-CCM+ for resistance, propulsion and seakeeping, and Teamcenter to manage the vessel configuration from contract to maintenance.
Where we help
The engineering challenges we solve most often in this industry
Hydrodynamics
Resistance, propeller performance, manoeuvring and seakeeping predicted with Simcenter STAR-CCM+.
Structure and outfitting
Steel structure, piping, HVAC and cable routing designed in one ship model.
Class and configuration
Teamcenter tracks the as-designed, as-built and as-maintained configuration of each vessel.
Yard planning
Block assembly and outfitting sequences planned and simulated before production.

Can STAR-CCM+ replace model basin testing?
It reduces it. Simulation screens hull variants early so only the final candidates go to the basin, which saves weeks and cost.
Do you cover offshore platforms and jack-ups as well?
Yes. The same tools handle offshore structures, topsides and marine equipment.
Can we manage sister ships with small differences?
Yes. Teamcenter's variant management keeps a common baseline and records each vessel's differences.
