OSLO, Norway – AqualisBraemar LOC Group (ABL Group) has acquired the UK operations of OSD-IMT from Damen Shipyard Group.
OSD-IMT is a specialist consultancy in ship design for newbuild, refit and conversion projects. It specializes in newbuild construction, support and supply vessels for the offshore energy industry, dredger and dredging support vessels, and marine survey vessels.
OSD-IMT, which has launched more than 150 designs to date, will become part of ABL Group company Longitude Engineering, which specializes in marine operations engineering and marine design, conversion and upgrade of specialized vessels.
Jake Anderson, Group MD for Engineering Services at ABL Group and managing director of Longitude Engineering, said: “Our plan is to combine OSD-IMT’s ship design track record with Longitude’s specialist expertise in marine design, consultancy and operations. While OSD-IMT have traditionally focused more on newbuild ship design, Longitude’s legacy is rooted in specialist consultancy services including advanced analysis, hybrid power systems, and procurement support. The combination is an excellent match.”
