Qualifications

• 5-10+ years in marine transportation, naval architecture, heavy-lift or marine structural engineering.
• Proven experience preparing cargo vessel stowage plans.
• Experience with heavy-lift/project cargo ocean transportation.
• Strong understanding of vessel motions, accelerations, stability and structural strength.
• Strong working knowledge of IMO, DNV Rules for Ships and DNV-ST-N001.
• Experience with dynamic mooring analysis.
• Ability to independently develop final transport engineering solutions.
• Proficiency in AutoCAD.
• At least one vessel motion/MRA software: ABB OCTOPUS, DNV SIMA, MOSES, or equivalent.
• At least one dynamic mooring software: Optimoor, OrcaFlex, ANSYS AQWA, or equivalent.

Responsibilities

• Prepare vessel cargo stowage plans and heavy-lift transport concepts.
• Support project tenders, FEED and concept engineering.
• Perform and interpret vessel motion response analysis and translate motions into design accelerations and forces.
• Perform vessel stability and ballasting calculations.
• Perform/review dynamic mooring analyses.
• Develop cargo securing, weight-spreading and structural arrangements.
• Perform structural strength assessments using principles of strength of materials and structural mechanics.
• Prepare final transport manuals, method statements, securing arrangements and engineering calculations.
• Apply IMO, DNV Rules for Ships and DNV-ST-N001 requirements to cargo securing, accelerations, strength, weather windows and operational limits.
