There are several ways to celebrate 10 years of existence. We chose to sail in the waters of the Tejo by performing our first Vera Navis Sailing Team Regatta.
With a total of 30 co-workers distributed by 5 teams, Vera Navis sailed the Tejo in a healthy and fun competition, enjoying the view of Lisbon from a different perspective with the precious help from Terra Incógnita and its highly competent and professional team.
We look forward to continue working together and see what the next 10 years will hold us.

Creating a new independent Ship Design office was no obvious choice back in 2009. Doing it in Lisbon was, well… borderline insanity?
But, looking back, probably those years of hard struggle, amidst the financial crisis and within a geography which had slowly parted from its shipbuilding industry, were instrumental in our direction.
We innovated with our flexible approach to the industry, we introduced new tools in the market, and we have developed new methods and workflows, always listening to our clients.
We assumed an international profile from day one, promoting our services wherever they were needed, and we keep proud of consistently exporting over 90% of our services to several different markets.
It has been an intense journey and it’s a path we couldn’t have made without the help of our families, friends and clients, and to whom we’re deeply grateful.
The team has grown, became wiser, but we’re feeling younger than ever. 10 years have passed since we have incorporated. We’re teenagers now!

For the second consecutive year, Vera Navis supports and sponsors the Technical Solar Boat project.
Técnico Solar Boat is a university project consisting of cross-degree engineering students at Instituto Superior Técnico that work together on the development of a solar powered boat. It is approximately 5,2m long by 2.4m wide, with the purpose of participating in worldwide university competitions organized by Solar1, such as Monaco Solar & Electric Boat Challenge.
These competitions consist of speed, endurance, time trials and maneuverability races to test the boat’s performance but at the same time having the goal of evaluating the technological advances in the area.

The 2019 R2 release of SSI’s ShipConstructor & EnterprisePlatform is focused on STREAMLINING. Increased automation, auto-assigning standards, enhanced Clash Detection and an overall reduction in procedural steps all define the improvements to this release.
It is now easier than ever to find and share information from the ShipConstructor Marine Information Model, as EnterprisePlatform provides an improved method to navigate the Operations function, using the new Operations Browser. Whether gathering information to curate, collate and share within or across departments, the EnterprisePlatform Operations Browser helps to efficiently manage existing operations used to automate repetitive, time consuming error prone manual processes.
On 21st November, Ferguson Marine Engineering Limited (“FMEL“) successfully launched MV Glen Sannox at its Port Glasgow Shipyard, the first ship of a series of two Ro-Ro Ferries for the Caledonian Maritime Shipowner Assets Limited (“CMAL“).
Glen Sannox is the first LNG (Liquefied Natural Gas) and Marine Gas Oil (MGO) to be built in the UK, being the first with this typology to be operated by Caledonian MacBrayne
The construction of this 102-meter ship began in 2016 and is scheduled for delivery in the winter of 2018/2019. It is planned to operate in different ports in Scotland, however, the Ardrossan – Brodick route will be the first to be served, ensuring the transport of up to 1,000 passengers and 127 cars.
During the launch ceremony attended by Scotland’s first minister Nicola Sturgeon, Ferguson Marine thanked the subcontractors “I would like to thank all our collaborators and subcontractors for the significant efforts to ensure a successful launch and also a commitment to ensure that we will continue to develop the company in the sense of becoming a world reference in construction and naval engineering”.
FMEL and CMAL are working closely to define the operating principles and critical operations that stem from the nature of the project and the environment in which the ship will operate. The main technological partners, of which Vera Navis stands out, have cooperate with the Shipowner, Operator and Shipyard to provide all technical support.
Vera Navis provides the entire three-dimensional model and all Construction \ Coordination plans for the detail design of Structures, Fluid and Gas networks, Ventilation & Air Conditioning model and Electrical Network \ Cable Ladders.
Vera Navis participates, together with the main suppliers of equipment and engineering such as Wartsila, Kongsberg and TTS, in the construction of the best possible solutions within a very demanding contractual framework and of high responsibility.
