PROJECTS
Labadee, Haiti
Coastal Systems Development Inc., with the cooperation of Danport and the Danish Hydraulic Institute, developed static and dynamic analytical models to design and install a mooring buoy system for Royal Caribbean's Voyager-class cruise ships, the largest passenger ships in the world at the time of construction.
The design presented numerous challenges due to the high incidence of gusty winds, tight maneuvering spaces, and the size of the vessels. All these constraints were analyzed and resolved in order to proceed with the buoy's design.
Based on the modeling results, Coastal Systems developed design plans and specifications for the complex buoy system and coordinated the procurement of materials, construction administration and on-site construction management.
Coastal Systems also designed the site utilities which included a reverse osmosis water supply system and a sewage treatment system with collection and package plants
