marine engineering

The ability to move large volumes of raw materials and finished products from the point of manufacture to world markets is dependent on properly designed terminals and the supporting infrastructure. Ships are getting bigger, harbors and channels are getting deeper, and the structures required to support terminal operations are more complex. To remain competitive in this global environment, coastal and riverine ports and harbors rely on firms that can provide innovative marine engineering solutions to make sure their facilities and infrastructure work efficiently.
