Maritime

The shipping industry is facing its biggest transition ever. International regulations have set out clear requirements: carbon dioxide emissions must be reduced by 75 per cent by 2050. The EU's emissions trading system puts a price on every tonne of carbon dioxide emitted, and emissions must be reduced by 40 per cent by 2030. This means that shipping companies, shipyards and ports must make crucial choices between alternative fuels, new technologies such as wind propulsion, and extensive investments in ships and land-based infrastructure. At the same time, the market demands cost-effective, sustainable solutions in the long term.

Naval architecture and systems engineering

With naval architecture and project management services, RISE supports shipowners through the life cycle of the vessel. Using a systematic, scientific, and holistic approach to ship design combined with a vast knowledge and experience within the naval architecture domain, it gives us the ability to support your plans or development project to reach their full potential.

Solution

Wind-Powered Ships

Wind propulsion and wind assistance for ships has great potential in resolving the unprecedented challenges that the shipping industry faces today.

Solution

Maritime environment, risk and operation

By combining technical and operational knowledge and expertise, RISE reduce risks, costs and environmental impact for safe, resilient, and efficient maritime operation. We contribute with stability and predictability.

Solution

Integrated maritime logistics support and technical information

Accurate, complete, vessel-specific and easily accessible technical information for ships not only enhances safety and accessibility – it also reduces the total life-cycle cost. RISE provide information analysis, the production, quality assurance and efficient publication of technical information, as well as practical verification of maintenance measures on board vessels.
