Six Tee Marine And Offshore Engineering Groups Select Intergraph SmartMarine 3D
Huntsville, AL - Six Tee Engineering Groups, one of Asia's leading marine and offshore facilities engineering firms, has adopted Intergraph SmartMarine 3D software.
The Singapore and China-based company specializes in the basic and detail design and project management of marine and offshore structures. Six Tee selected SmartMarine 3D to increase productivity and quality for its work in the basic and detail design and project management of marine and offshore structures.
Six Tee projects include floating production, storage and offloading (FPSO) vessels; jack-ups; semi-submersibles; drill ships; offshore fixed platforms; pipe-laying/derrick barges; sub-sea pipelines; offshore support vessels and a variety of merchant ships.
SmartMarine 3D provides a multi-discipline, integrated and seamless design environment that will facilitate work sharing between Six Tee's Singapore, Tianjin and Shanghai offices. The design software has proven to reduce costs and shorten project schedules for shipbuilders and offshore design firms alike. It couples engineering, automatic drawings generation, production planning and manufacturing.
"After a detailed and extensive evaluation of Intergraph PPM's SmartMarine 3D, we found that its advanced data-centric technology, rule-driven automation and workflow integration capabilities will provide us with significant productivity and quality gains. SmartMarine 3D is exactly what our business requires for the improvement of our engineering processes and we'll now be using SmartMarine 3D on new projects moving forward," said Six Tee Shanghai General Manager Zhang Song.
