Shipping is a cyclical business with the constant fluctuations in the market fuelling constant new building, replacement and scrapping activity. Since the incubation period is large, owners have to speculate the direction of the market at delivery even before they order new-buildings. In some specialized trades the ship is only one element of a project and a project management approach is required to enable smooth dovetailing with the overall economics and design. In these scenarios time or cost overruns can wipe off the projected margins and it is very important to complete the projects in time. Equally, quality cannot be compromised for cost or time.

It is here that close supervision is required right from a ship's conception, through the drawing board till the sea trials. It is also here that complete trust and understanding between all the concerned parties can be a make or break factor.

Eurasia's marine consultancy division was formed in 1994 specifically for such projects and has since teamed up with many customers for new-building consultancy and supervision services.

Consultancy involves a dedicated multi-skilled team assigned to a project and we have a team of qualified people, ready for deployment at very short notice, to handle any work from the drawing board until the ISM documentation stage.

All building is about transforming matter by using the mind, and two minds are better than one.

Come; let us create together by putting our mind over the matter.
