How

ÈTA Shipping supports shipowners and operators through the entire process — from first idea to an operational vessel, with lifecycle support if required.

Our scope includes:

  • Concept & Initial Design – vessel concepts tailored to trade and cargo profile, with studies on efficiency and fuel options.
  • Tendering & Yard Selection – preparation of tender packages, evaluation of offers, and assistance in selecting the most suitable yard.
  • Contract & Makers Negotiation – support in negotiating with shipyards and equipment suppliers to secure the best technical and commercial terms.
  • Basic Design – general arrangement, structural, piping, and tank plans prepared for class and flag approval.
  • Detailed Design – full technical package including structural details, piping and cable routing, and system integration, approved by class.
  • Newbuilding Supervision – on-site supervision during construction, ensuring the shipyard’s production design and build process align with the approved detailed design.
  • Operational Support – technical ship management, retrofit engineering, fuel conversions, and compliance upgrades (EEXI, CII, EU ETS).

This end-to-end approach allows ÈTA to manage a project from initial concept through delivery, ensuring continuity, quality, and accountability at every stage.
