Introduction to Ship Design and Naval Architecturerockporshe
This 2 day course is intended to provide interested parties with an overview of the fundamentals of naval architecture, to help them develop a better understanding of the science of ship design, and therefore their influence on the design and operation of ships.
The course will consider key aspects in ship design, such as ship stability and hydrostatistics, hull structures, durability, powering and machinery requirements as well as expected resistances when operating in the marine environment. Finally, these key areas will be integrated together within the typical design process used to develop
the design of a ship.
Ships and other large, marine vessels are complex structures. They operate in a wide range of harsh environments and carry out 90% of the world’s
trade and resource exploration activities. Even small ships have a complex structure, including systems for propulsion and operation, cargo handling and crew support. Ships have a long life, during which their harsh operating
environment places heavy demands on their repair and maintenance to keep them operational.
Whether non-marine engineers, or support staff involved in contracts and logistics, all can benefit from a practical understanding of the overall shipyard business. This 2 day course is designed to provide essential knowledge in
shipyard management and the various operations taking place – ship design, shipbuilding, repairs & maintenance, conversion and retrofitting. This includes the early ship design and contracting stage, following up to the post contract, ship construction and production up until project completion and handover phase. Prepared by an international leading specialist in marine technology
and construction, the material covered in the in the various course modules explains the different shipyard processes and operations involved in a clear and straightforward manner

Fundamentals of OSV is a comprehensive course which
aims to provide market information for those wanting a
better appreciation of this booming segment. In addition, key technical, operational and regulatory aspects will be covered to give participants an understanding of capabilities required to be successful in this market.
This extremely popular professional development training
explores the marine support, operation and supply sector
as a central part of any offshore development, both in the
exploration and production phases.
With growing demand for port services, rising customer requirements to reduce delays and congestion, and limited port and hinterland capacity, the pressure is greater than ever on ports and terminals to adapt their planning and
operational processes to reduce congestion and improve productivity.
This is a 2-day intensive workshop structured in terms of 7 modules as shown below. The workshop is delivered through formal lectures, case studies and business games, several group exercises, and a simulation modelling
exercise.
This 2 day Fundamentals of Dynamic Positioning course will provide a comprehensive understanding of dynamic positioning systems and operations, from technical and commercial perspectives, to future industry trends.
Led by an experienced DP instructor, the course will start off with an overview of the principles and system requirements of dynamic positioning, such as redundancy, levels of control, and modes. The 7 main components
of a DP system including control systems, thrusters, position reference systems, and sensors will be examined in detail.
Dry Bulk Logistics is a two day course that will guide you
through the dry bulk logistics chain, with special emphasis
on seaborne link of that chain. From the hinterland transport network and port operations to shipboard operations and cargo types, delegates engaged in dry bulk logistics will be able to get an overview of the complete supply chain.

MARITIME
EXCELLENCE
CENTER
KOTUG can boast over 100 years of experience in the
maritime industry. In these years we have expanded our
field of expertise from towage to other areas such as
salvage and offshore. This extensive nautical and technical
knowledge has now been consolidated in KOTUG’s
Maritime Excellence Center (MEC). The MEC is the place
where our track record becomes tangible and where we are
able to perform our part as thought leader. Where we fulfill
our promise of being an all-round and integrated know-
how service provider to the maritime industry.
Our mission is to support clients in creating safer, greener
and more efficient operations. KOTUG’s Maritime Excellence
Center addresses all elements of a shipping line and is
therefore the place to go to for every aspect of ‘Tugnology’
- and more. From training programs to supervision of the
newbuilding of vessels, from strategic advice to aiding in
operation and everything in between.
“….Thought leaders are the informed opinion leaders and
the go-to people in their field of expertise. They are
trusted resources who move and inspire people with
innovative ideas: turn ideas into reality and advice on
how to replicate their success. They create a dedicated
group of friends, fans and followers to help them
replicate and scale those ideas into sustainable change.
Not just in one company, but in an industry, niche or
across an entire network…..”
1.TUGTRAINING
‘Knowledge Ahead’ means improving industry
know-how continuously and having high
standards. KOTUG has therefore developed its
own KOTUG standards of Training and
Education. We train crews and educate new
captains in operating all possible propulsion
systems. We provide training captains and
consultants and - if needed - we also deliver
captains. Training can take place both in
simulator centers across the globe and live on
real ships. Some examples of the tug training:
- Training crews (with or without simulator)
- ‘Sail in port’ awareness course (ship
captains)
- ‘Sail in port’ awareness course with BRM
module
- Training for companies ordering a new
Rotortug
- Formal training and examination
- Objective assessment of captains
- End to end training plans for entire crews
2.NAUTICALCONSULTANCY
During port and terminal development around
the world, it is important to pay attention to
the use of tugs and the safest and most
efficient way of operating them. In addition to
training, we also deliver consultancy services,
with or without simulation, such as:
- Advice on the (new) harbour / terminal layout
- Simulating these new harbour layouts and
assessing the type and number of tugs needed
- Simulating various scenarios in tug boat
configuration
- Assessing the best tug type for a certain
harbour
- Nautical and HSE support to the maritime
industry and tug operators
- Towage consultancy on special marine
transport projects
- Simulating special marine transport projects,
our towmasters provide support in the
execution of the simulated scenarios
- Providing advice and production of complete
marine safety cases
3.TECHNICALCONSULTANCY
The Maritime Excellence Center supports ship
owners in optimizing and improving the
technical standards of their assets. In addition to
optimizing fleet maintenance, the Maritime
Excellence Center can also help to analyze the
performance of fleets and consult on how to
improve effectiveness and efficiency, e.g.:
- Docking support (on-site and remote)
- Vessel inspections and assessments against set
standards (incl. reporting)
- Planned and preventive maintenance
optimization
- Defining the optimum maintenance strategy for
an entire fleet
- Analysis of fleet performance with analytical
tools and/or dashboards
- Providing advice on the best suitable tug
composition within a certain operation or port
INNOVATIONS
Innovation is at the heart of the KOTUG’s
Maritime Excellence Center. Here all KOTUG
innovations, like the Hybrid Rotortug 2.0 or the
KO-LINK, have been developed and managed.
We provide innovative solutions to ongoing
technical and operational issues, in terms of
propulsion, fuel systems, emissions and towing
equipment, aiming to have the best possible tug
and fleet configuration for the job.
4.NEWBUILDING
For many years KOTUG has been supervising
and managing the newbuilding of its state-
of-the-art fleet, at yards all over the world.
We help ship owners to ensure that vessels
are built on time and within budget and
against a set of quality specifications.
The KOTUG newbuilding team can deliver
services for all newbuilding projects and
other activities, e.g:
- Newbuilding supervision
- Yard selection
- Purchasing support, such as valuations
of second hand vessels
- Supplier vetting and auditing
- Providing advice on the most suitable tugs
for the client’s requirements
