This 2 day course is intended to provide interested parties with an overview of the fundamentals of naval architecture, to help them develop a better understanding of the science of ship design, and therefore their influence on the design and operation of ships. The course will consider key aspects in ship design, such as ship stability and hydrostatistics, hull structures, durability, powering and machinery requirements as well as expected resistances when operating in the marine environment. Finally, these key areas will be integrated together within the typical design process used to develop the design of a ship.

About the Course
Ship design is a complicated process involving the multiple input
requirements from many other professionals. This includes navigating
and engineering officers, managers, charterers, superintendents,
surveyors, owners, operations staff and even passengers all having
different requirements, which often clash with each other and yet
being intrinsically linked.
This 2 day course is intended to provide interested parties with an
overview of the fundamentals of naval architecture, to help them
develop a better understanding of the science of ship design, and
therefore their influence on the design and operation of ships.
The course will consider key aspects in ship design, such as ship
stability and hydrostatistics, hull structures, durability, powering
and machinery requirements as well as expected resistances when
operating in the marine environment. Finally, these key areas will be
integrated together within the typical design process used to develop
the design of a ship.About the Course Director

provided project management training in Oman, Greece
and Curacao, and advice on shipyard developments in the
UK, and also in Abu Dhabi and Greece.
While at Newcastle University, he led or participated
in three major EU funded projects in support of the ship
repair industry, SYRIOS – to develop computer based
management Information Systems, INTERMAR – to
explore and understand the ship repair supply chain and
develop e-commerce tools and SHIPMATES – to develop
novel technologies for ship repair. He has carried out a
number of projects with SMEs in the marine and other
sectors to transfer new technology into the operations
of the companies. He has worked with small and large
shipbuilding and repair companies in UK, Spain, Portugal,
Italy and Greece.
George previously advised companies, local and national
governments on the development of shipbuilding and
repair facilities. He has worked in over forty countries,
