VeriSTAR-HLC (Hull Life Cycle) overview 2013.01.21 Philippe Renard

VeriSTAR-HLC Interface

Ships in service today have no 3D model

Manual processing Today, manual processing of : Thickness measurement reports Repairs preparation Structural condition assessment « at sea, steel is life »

How to get ships 3D models ?

3D models could be exported from shipyard - Model exported from Tribon, Foran, Catia, Intergraph, etc - This is the best solution, cheaper and more accurate than class-made CAD file OpenHCM - 3D model VeriSTAR-HLC Shipyard

3D models could be built from scratch If the model cannot be exported from shipyard, it can be built from the main drawings 3D model 3D Model editor VeriSTAR-HLC

V-HLC is based on the OpenHCM standard European project CAS (2005-2008) created the OpenHCM standard Phase n°3 Geometrical model (not F.E.M.) OpenHCM Phase n°2 Condition Assessment System Partners - Bureau Veritas (initiator and coordinator) Germanischer Lloyd Russian Register of Shipping Materiaal Metingen Europe LISNAVE SENER Cybernétix Instituto Superior Tecnico INTERTANKO TOTAL Automatic entry of measurement data Phase n°1 Measurement Operator

OpenHCM consortium The OpenHCM consortium manages the evolution of the standard, taking into account the feed-back from implementations

Owner’s benefits

Data remains in database forever Easy access to history of all ships 20 years ago 5 years ago 15 years ago Today

Hull monitoring capabilities For managers of superintendents office, to check quickly the hull condition of their ships Increase of chartering opportunities

Easy preparation of steel repairs Today’s preparation is done on paper drawings

Easy preparation of steel repairs Tomorrow, with V-HLC, scope of repairs will be shown as 3D views + renewal steel tons + repainted surface
