With theoretical knowledge and practical experience, we use both traditional and innovative methods to tackle technical challenges in the modern maritime industry, while ensuring a cost-effective design.
Some examples of our past projects include:
- Kommandor 3000: we converted the K3000 by developing the complete ship design, the electrical and mechanical designs, and an extensive equipment package
- Helix Producer I: the conversion of Helix Producer I from traditional ferry to floating production unit for the offshore industry was one of our most extensive and demanding projects
- Jean Charcot: our upgrade of research and survey vessel Jean Charcot was completed by installing a modern computer-based dynamic position system, which we successfully interfaced with the original 1960s propulsion systems
Advanced electrical and propulsion systems
NTD Offshore develops and produces a wide range of advanced electrical systems, including full diesel electrical plants, main switch boards and total vessel management systems.
The Helix Producer I required a full conversion of its diesel electrical propulsion system, in order to meet modern standards, which we completed thanks to our extensive experience of electrical systems.
