DEFENCE
PRINCIPIA has extensive experience in surface vessels & submarines design and assessment. Our teams have been involved in almost all main programs for the French Navy, as well as numerous programs for foreign Navies.
Working closely with our clients, we provide structural assessment services that take into account external stresses (underwater explosions & blasts) and operational loads, as well as performance forecasting, seakeeping, maneuverability and stability. We are also involved in the design of Navy harbor infrastructures and related equipment (heavy pontoons, cranes, docks & dock gates).
CARBON REDUCTION & ZERO-EMISSION
Facing the challenge of climate change, PRINCIPIA is committed to decarbonizing the maritime sector.
Driven by our ambition to reduce greenhouse gas emissions as much as possible, we work closely and hand in hand with all players in the maritime sector to find solutions, qualify and test them, install them on board vessels and, finally, monitor them to ensure effective follow-up, guaranteeing optimal operational efficiency.
SHIPPING
PRINCIPIA also supports Shipping actors such as independent naval architects, naval design offices, administrations, ship owners and yards.
We help them to define their projects and are technically involved from the very beginning, with conceptual studies and FEED analysis to Basic & Detailed Design, and even during vessel construction & commissioning, providing them with all drawings and documentation packages.
