6 EVALUATION AND NEXT DESIGN 5 RECYCLING Most oft
en, the vessels designed by and run under our Ship Management regime are still in extraordinarily good shape when the time has come for retirement. We cooperate with approved recycling facilities specially focused on and certified for recycling of ships and they usually manage to recycle up to 98% of a vessel. Steel is reused for other purposes, and interiors are packed up and reused for other ships, depending on customer requests. During a ship’s lifespan, we collect and analyse data for day-to-day operational improvements, but also to guide us in our next design project. We stay up to date with trends and market needs and frequently solve a problem that has not yet even become a known problem. Previous designs and knowledge from the entire life cycle is mixed and mingled with new standards and research results. Design after design. 4 PHOTO: RAPHAEL OLIVIER
