COSCO Shipyard Group Co., Ltd Selects Intergraph's Enterprise Shipbuilding and Offshore Solution

Intergraph Corporation announced that COSCO Shipyard Group, a joint venture comprising five shipyards operated by China Ocean Shipping Company ( COSCO ) and Singapore's SembCorp Marine, will deploy the integrated Intergraph Marine Enterprise portfolio.

COSCO Shipyard Group is initially using the IntelliShip solution for outfitting a Floating Storage & Offloading (FSO) vessel. This offshore engineering project is the first of its type to be built at the company's Zhoushan Shipyard. IntelliShip is a next generation, data-centric, rule-driven solution for streamlining shipbuilding design processes while preserving existing data and making it more usable/re-usable. The foundation of Intergraph Marine Enterprise, IntelliShip enables optimized design, increases productivity and shortens project schedules.

Zhu Qingshuang, general manager, Offshore Engineering Headquarters/Technical Center, COSCO Shipyard Group said, "After just two weeks of outfitting training we were impressed with the capabilities of this Intergraph Marine Enterprise and began to move forward with deployment of IntelliShip. Intergraph technologies meet COSCO Shipyard Group's requirements for an enterprise solution for both shipbuilding and offshore."

"The partnership between COSCO Shipyard Group and Intergraph will be instrumental in strengthening our productivity and competitiveness," added Zheng He, manager, Strategic Department, COSCO Shipyard Group.

"Our Marine Enterprise solution was developed to address the specific needs and requirements of the marine industry," added Gerhard Sallinger, president, Process, Power & Marine, Intergraph Corporation. "IntelliShip is revolutionizing the way ships are engineered, and we are looking forward to empowering the success of COSCO Shipyard Group."
