Marine Engineering - Design and Consultancy
Our Marine Engineers and Architects have a proven track record for providing effective designs whilst working to tight deadlines.
Certified to ISO 9001:2008, UMC’s Design and Consultancy Division, design and manufacture equipment and systems, including testing, certification, procedures and safety assessments to meet national and international standards.
Project Management and Turnkey Solutions
Our Project Managers are qualified marine architects who deliver projects to budget and on time. They all have in-depth experience of marine engineering and manufacturing, combined with knowledge of ship and submarine systems, including equipment design, installation, commissioning and decommissioning operations on nuclear licensed sites.
Engineering Design and Manufacture
Our marine engineering services have a global reach that includes:
In-house development and production of man-entry cofferdams to support hull insert repairs, stern seal, thrusters and rudder repairs.
R&D for new equipment and procedures to support afloat maintenance requirements
Development of specific techniques for replacement of hull mounted equipment
Production of documentation to support ship and submarine maintenance, including Defence Standards for UK MoD.
Offshore Services and Products for Platforms and FPSOs
To avoid dry-docking of platforms and FPSOs for repairs or maintenance, our specialist team of naval engineers and architects develop innovative engineering solutions to allow offshore rigs and platforms more time inbetween dockings.
Larger projects can be fully supported from concept design through to manufacture and on-site support. The team designs all the necessary equipment and documentation, including procedures and risk assessments. A strong background in project management ensures large projects can be fully supported.
Recently, UMC designed, manufactured and installed a unique cofferdam to support afloat repairs of all three spudcans of a jackup oil rig.
