Naval Architecture

With over 25 years’ experience in the field of naval architecture, BMT is among the leaders in the field. Our expertise is demonstrated by a portfolio of in-service designs covering all hull form types, speed regimes, propulsion systems and construction materials.

The scope of our naval architecture services includes:

Concept design development•

Specification writing•

Hull-form design and development •

Computational fluid dynamics •

Performance predictions •

Propulsion system design•

Sea-keeping analysis •

Hydrodynamic model testing •

Manoeuvring simulations •

Weight engineering•

Stability analysis•

Aerodynamic wind tunnel testing•

Loadline and other statutory •calculations

This breadth of scope enables us to deliver insightful naval architecture at any stage of a project: from early concept and feasibility studies to Class level design and production design, commissioning and refit. Working across all stages of design, construction, commissioning and refit we can advise the correct level of scope and project structure to deliver maximum added value, minimise technical risk and engineering cost.

BMT has an established reputation as a leader in the field of hull form development and we combine our breadth and depth of experience in the yacht, offshore energy, commercial and naval markets to deliver designs tailored for good sea-keeping, low resistance, low wash with high propulsive efficiency. Our portfolio extends far beyond conventional monohulls and covers the development of hull forms such as catamarans, SWATHs, hydrofoils and air cushioned vessels. We invest in research and development of new and novel hull forms and have developed and trialled numerous innovative multihulls, hybrid

SWATH, monohull and catamaran designs.

Additionally our background in configuring conventional, unusual and high-tech propulsion systems coupled with the integration of stabilisation and dynamic positioning systems allows us to provide high level capability for the most demanding of vessel operators.

Coupled with these skills we are challenged by the industry’s leading operators and shipyards to help deliver their requirements through our knowledge of the modern regulatory framework, major Flag Authorities and Class Societies.
