With our team of 10 highly skilled naval architects we assist shipping companies to identify and solve any noise or vibration problem on one of their vessels. Shipyards receive our consultancy to build their vessels as quiet as necessary to comply with specifications on onboard noise, vibration or underwater radiated noise. DW-ShipConsult is a JASCO Applied Sciences company, a world leader in the science of underwater noise and its effects on marine life.
