Hear it From Our Highly Skilled and Experienced Team
Redmer van der Meer
Concept Designer & Hydrodynamic Specialist
”I started at Conoship as an intern, and I’ve been working for the company for ten years. What I like the most about working at Conoship is the team. We are very open with each other and discuss projects and challenges. Our colleagues are always very helpful and insightful. When you finish your studies at university, your knowledge is very technical, and working for a company with an experienced team helps you better understand how to apply it to a project. You improve your understanding of concept design, stability, hydrodynamics, regulations, etc. A great milestone for me at Conoship was developing one of the first Energy Efficiency Existing Ship Index (EEXI) calculations and having the technical files approved by Lloyd’s Register. With the implementation of the EEXI, we can indicate the energy efficiency of a ship compared to a baseline.”
Roel Blom
Project Manager
”I’ve been working with Conoship for 9 years, and I feel like I’ve grown with the company, taking on more responsibilities and managing bigger projects. What I like the most about working at Conoship is the freedom of thought and input everyone can contribute when we tackle challenging projects. We have a diverse team and can rely on our colleagues for different points of view. Conoship is essentially a design company, and we are truly innovative. We get to implement new technologies that we work with in research projects directly into new-build projects for shipowners. When you start at the company, you are free to choose the disciplines you prefer, whether it’s naval architecture, structure, piping, research, or management. Usually, you get a lot of responsibility very quickly, and you’ll be talking to your clients, feeling that you are making a difference in their projects.”
