Special Projects
Shipping oversized, complex and valuable cargo by water comes with unique challenges, and Jensen’s Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) know this better than anyone. Whether it’s transporting a land-based oil rig to its final location over water, or a simple towing resistance analysis, our experts provide customized solutions. Jensen offers innovative marine engineering solutions throughout the life cycle of all our projects. Our solutions include conceptual design, detailed engineering and management of multiple engineering disciplines.
Our association with Crowley gives us the unique advantage of having direct involvement with operations and the ability to design solutions with the highest level of safety for both cargo and personnel. Additionally, utilizing Jensen SMEs throughout the project’s design life cycle can prevent costly changes from last minute modifications to construction and/or cargo load-out plans.
