Providing Services Nationally and Internationally.
Grantec Engineering Consultants Inc. provides specialist engineering analysis and design for the manufacturing, energy, petro-chemical, marine, offshore, and defence sectors. Our services are provided both nationally and internationally. Our clients range from those based in North America to those as far away as China.
Grantec
technical personnel have considerable experience in the oil & gas,
refinery, manufacturing, offshore, marine, aerospace and defence sectors.
The experience of these individuals not only includes application of
advanced methods, but also a depth of practical and design experience as
well. As such, Grantec is able to effectively and efficiently address a
range of challenging issues in a cost effective manner.
The depth and proficiency of our specialists is reflected in their
participation in various CSA, ISO, API, and UKOOA standards development
initiatives in the areas of structures (fixed, floating, offshore), pressure
systems, safety, wind turbines and marine energy devices.
Grantec personnel
participate directly in the development of ISO Offshore Structures standards
and IEC Marine Energy standards at the international level.
Grantec has a depth of experience applying codes and standards such as: ABS, API, ASCE, ASME, BS, CSA, DNV, FABIG, H&SE (UK), ISO, LR, NORSOK, UKOOA, USDOE, to name a few.
Grantec's expertise in the areas of offshore structures and ocean engineering have led to significant involvement in research and development efforts in the area of open ocean aquaculture and marine energy devices. One focus of the offshore aquaculture research has been directed toward the development of dynamic hydrodynamic response models for the prediction of offshore aquaculture cage (or net pen) systems to wave and current loadings.
