Naval Affordability, Sustainability and Efficiency

consilium-navy-warship_3Given the dual pressures of current operational commitments and declining defence budgets, navies globally are under increased pressure to deliver the same or better capabilities with fewer resources. Ensuring affordable and timely ship construction, repair and refit through more efficient methods and technologies has taken on a renewed importance. This conference will give stakeholders the information they need to deliver to these increasingly difficult requirements through project case studies, insights in the latest technologies available and sharing best practices with peers.



Key themes of the conference will include:

  • Ensuring affordability throughout naval vessel deign, construction, repair and refit
  • Effectively using CAD and other graphics tools in vessel design

  • Planning for future environmental legislation and managing the down-stream costs
  • Pioneering new technologies including electric propulsion, dual fuels and composite materials
