INHOUSE DESIGN

Our organization has mastered the tailor made design, calculation and engineering of inland and maritime vessels. This enables us to provide our customers a high degree of flexibility. The core business of Rensen-Driessen Shipbuilding B.V. is to design, build and supply all conceivable types of ships and marine equipment, from complex gas tankers, passenger ships to offshore barges. The inland navigation market demands a wide range of ship dimensions and design specifica- tions. From small, light air draft tankers to large

bunker tankers and container ships. In the design we consider the key criteria such as air draft, carrying capacity, speed, stability, etc. Equally im- portant is to incorporate the increasingly stringent class and IVW (Traffic and Water Management) rules and stability regulations in the designs. Taking into account the important design require- ments, Rensen-Driessen Shipbuilding B.V. posses- ses extensive knowledge and experience in this field to quickly and efficiently produce various

ship designs for our clients. As an innovative developer of new projects we have introduced the Schelde construction in our inland tanker designs. In collaboration with 'Schelde Naval Shipbuilding' in Vlissingen we have performed extensive calculations that have led to an approved design for larger cargo tanks and a crashworthy side skin of the ship. These cargo tanks are ideal for large tankers. Because of their size, they can decrease the number of cargo tanks and thus different quantities of appendages.
