FORCE Technology’s competitive edge in marine engineering is based on expert level knowledge within both hydrodynamic loads and structural response. The experience has been gained by working with all phases of a development project, including transportation, installation and in-service phases.

Based on broad experience from different floating and fixed structures - semi-submersibles, ship-shaped structures, jackets and gravity base structures - as well as slender structures e.g. mooring lines, risers and cables, we are capable of analysing any structure in a marine environment, both with respect to extreme loads and fatigue loads.

Typical services within this field are:

• Marine operations
  - Transport, upending/launch and installation of jackets
  - Lifting, installation and removal of offshore platform modules
  - Motion analyses of marine vessels on waves
  - Analyses of station keeping for marine vessels
   
• Slender structures
  - Motions and strength analyses of mooring systems
  - Behaviour of the mooring lines after breakage
   
• Environmental loads
  - Wave-in-deck impact
  - Under-deck impact
  - Green water on deck
  - Run-up
  - Slamming.
