SUSTAINABLE VESSEL DESIGN PROCESS: Incat Crowther’s Sustainable Vessel Design Process is helping operators around the world choose the best low and zero-emission technologies to sustainability grow their fleets. Our Sustainable Vessel Design Process is technology-agnostic, and involves a 7-step process to ensure we provide bespoke solutions tailored to the operational needs of our clients. Our process begins by assessing the operational requirements of the vessel or the fleet, analysing the routes, including vessel speed and loading requirements, reviewing the local weather conditions and regulatory compliance, and evaluating dockside infrastructure. We then collaborate with operators to choose the best solutions that create commercially viable, future-proofed vessels. Recently we have delivered a range of all-electric, hydrogen fuel-cell powered, hybrid, dual-fuel and alternative fuel powered systems for operators large and small.

NEWS: Incat Crowther is partnering with Singapore’s marinEV, a business of Yinson GreenTech, to design a new ultra-efficient, all-electric light cargo transfer vessel. The 24-metre vessel will transport light cargo such as stores, food and maintenance items to vessels anchored in the Singapore Strait and joins marinEV’s growing fleet of low and zero emission vessels. Powered by a lithium-ion battery system and capable of transporting a payload of 25 tonnes, Hydromover 2.0 builds on the success of marinEV’s prototype Hydromover 1.0 – and will contribute to the decarbonisation of the Maritime and Port Authority of Singapore.

NEWS: Ocean Master, a new 32-metre aluminium catamaran designed by Incat Crowther is set to enter service for Australia’s Rottnest Fast Ferries ahead of the operator’s busy Christmas tourist season. The vessel, built by Austal Philippines, has a capacity of 400 passengers and will operate on the iconic 30-kilometre journey from Hillarys Boat Harbour in Perth to Rottnest Island. Ocean Master boats extensive cargo space for bicycles and baggage across two of its three decks and is powered by two 1029kW MAN D2862 diesel engines. Learn more about how Ocean Master went from being commissioned to operation in well under 12 months here – https://bit.ly/4f7TvEP   #digitalshipbuilding #marinedesign #navaldesign #marinearchitect #navalarchitecture #navalarchitect #shipbuilding #Perth #RottnestIsland #passengerferry #touristferry #design #3ddesign #newferry #shipdesign #Austal #RottnestFastFerries #tourism

Watch this short video to hear our CEO Brett Crowther talk about why the creation of a ‘Digital Ship’ enhances efficiency and accuracy on projects requiring the construction of multiple vessels in a tight timeframe. Brett explains why a 'Digital Ship' complete with a detailed work pack can incorporate requirements from all stakeholders and streamline the manufacturing process.

DELIVERED: Two new state-of-the-art hybrid ferries designed by Incat Crowther have been delivered to Hong Kong & Kowloon Ferry Limited (HKKF) – and are set to transform commuter travel between Hong Kong and its islands. The two 40-metre vessels, one of which is carbon-hulled and the other aluminium-hulled, are part of a nine-vessel order and will form part of a trial by the Hong Kong Government as it seeks to reduce emissions from the local shipping sector.    Each vessel boasts a hybrid drive train and lithium-ion energy storage systems allowing them to operate in zero-emissions mode during slow speed transit, berthing and manoeuvring. Each ferry is also fitted with exhaust treatment technology and 30 square metres of solar panels supported by battery technology to provide zero-emissions onboard power.

NEWS FEATURE: Riviera Maritime Media Ltd has recently featured how Incat Crowther deployed augmented reality technology in a project we are completing for Transport for NSW in Australia. As part of our design process, we used Augmented Reality technology to ensure the vessels’ crew could experience a ‘digital twin’ of each vessel before it hits the water. This process helped to ensure the project had critical stakeholder buy-in helping to ensure the new 200-passenger ferries were in service quickly.
