Aries Energy's team of experts provide a full range of consultancy services to the marine industry including naval architecture, structural engineering, subsea engineering, and marine engineering services.As one of the trusted marine consultancy providers in the UAE, we support marine and offshore projects across the region with reliable and efficient engineering solutions. Aries is specialized in designing and generating conversion designs of various types of ship for the marine, offshore renewable energy, and offshore industry, providing ISO certified customized solutions. We have the capacity, skill, and resources to design cost effectively and efficiently tailor-made to clients’ requirements.
Ship design work that Aries does can be for a new build of vessel or the upgradation of an existing ship. Our experience handling UAE-based marine projects helps us deliver designs that align with regional standards and operational requirements. Ships can be converted to other ship types specialized designs. Design strategies include careful analysis of requirements, ship purposes, efficiency, “Green” aspects, Operational easiness, HSE requirements, compliance of standards etc. together with various economic considerations.
Aries energy ship design team consists of naval architects, structural engineers, piping and instrumentation engineers, 3D scanning technicians, shipbuilding engineers, marine engineers, draftsmen, QA/QC, and document controllers.
Yes. Aries Energy's naval architecture team designs conversions for vessel types including pipelay and accommodation barges, cable laying ships, diving support vessels, well stimulation vessels, fire-fighting vessels, anchor handling tugs, and tankers including IBC Code chemical carriers. The conversion design package covers structural design and analysis, loadout calculations, and updated stability documentation, following the same design strategy used for new-build ship design.
Aries Energy's naval architects and engineers work in AVEVA PDMS, AutoHydro, AutoPower, and Hullform for naval architecture tasks, and use SESAM, STAAD Pro, SACS, MOSES, GT STRUDL, ANSYS, GRLWEAP, and DynaSim for structural and offshore analysis, with OrcaFlex for subsea engineering and Optimoor for mooring analysis. Deliverables can be produced or reviewed in these formats to align with a client's existing engineering software environment.
Aries Energy performs reverse engineering analysis and calculations, including re-scantling calculations, when original construction drawings are missing, outdated, or no longer reflect a vessel's as-built condition. This supports conversion projects, life extension studies, and structural modifications where current scantlings and structural properties must be re-established before new design or analysis work can proceed.
A new-build or conversion design package from Aries Energy includes inclining experiment reports, intact and damage stability booklets, fire and safety plans and safety manuals, tonnage, load line and freeboard calculations, and International Safety Management (ISM) manuals with implementation support. These documents are prepared to support statutory compliance and are typically required before a vessel can be certified or put into service.
