InterSHIP – The art of constructing complex ships
Integrated collaborative design and
production of cruise vessels, passenger
ships and RoPax
InterSHIP aimed to increase EU shipbuilders’ competitiveness
by better integrating tools and methods for the design and
manufacture of complex one-of-a-kind vessels. The project
enabled shipyard engineers to draw on cutting-edge
knowledge in environmental aspects, safety, comfort and
cost efficiency in simultaneous engineering, making sure
that optimum solutions can be obtained for the total lifecycle
of complex ships. The Integrated Project also focused
on improving horizontal cooperation between shipyards
and vertical integration between shipyards, owners, and
classification societies.
Coordinator I Aker Yards Oy (Finland)
Total budget I EUR 38.5 million
