Abu Dhabi Ship Building Selects AVEVA Marine for Ship Designing and Building
AVEVA announced that Abu Dhabi Ship Building (ADSB), a prominent shipbuilder in the Middle East, has selected the AVEVA Marine software solution to support the design, fabrication and construction of its new projects.
ADSB specializes in the construction, repair, refit and upgrade of Naval, Military and Commercial ships at their yard located in Mussafah, Abu Dhabi. ADSB has especially strong ties with the UAE Navy and is affiliated with several Gulf Navies. Their decision to select AVEVA Marine came after rigorous studies and benchmarks of other commercially available systems. AVEVA Marine has become an integral part of ADSB's exciting business plan.
Major Waleed Al Tamimi of Abu Dhabi Ship Building said "ADSB will use AVEVA Marine to help us achieve the business and operational benefits that we need to meet our current and developing business plan. In addition to the navy of the UAE, we have been awarded contracts for the navies of other countries. We are also developing our commercial shipbuilding business to match the growing opportunities, particularly in the Arabian Gulf, in support of the expanding offshore and construction industries. ADSB is implementing world-class production technologies and modern working practices and AVEVA Marine is an important component of us being able to do these".
Louay Dahmash, Vice President of AVEVA Middle East states "AVEVA is proud to announce our alliance with Abu Dhabi Ship Building. The AVEVA Marine portfolio will enable ADSB to design, build and refit their ships productively and efficiently. We were able to show ADSB how AVEVA Marine technology is being used effectively in other shipyards designing and building complex naval ships and also in the offshore industry. AVEVA is looking forward to developing our relationship with ADSB and working closely with their staff".
