Fincantieri Offshore Chooses AVEVA Software

April 24, 2014

One of the world’s largest shipbuilders uses AVEVA software to design next-generation drillship.

Fincantieri Offshore has signed a contract with AVEVA to implement AVEVA Marine software in the concept design phase of Proxima, a major offshore drillship project. Proxima is a revolutionary design with an innovative drilling system that significantly increases the speed of the drilling process. It can therefore be a powerful tool for drilling contractors to boost their profitability, not only by drilling more efficiently, but also by drilling wells that were not previously possible. Fincantieri Offshore is using several AVEVA Marine products for this project.

Fincantieri has a very creative and skilled team and we look forward to working with them on other such revolutionary projects in the future.”
