Drydocking & Bulbous Bow Retrofit, Lisnave

Photography and aerial video reportage of one of the most sought-after jobs in the ship repair market: the bulbous bow retrofit. Over 7 months, Lisnave built five bulbous bows from scratch and replaced them on five vessels of the same international shipowner, in dry dock at the Setúbal shipyard. The new bow geometry improves hull hydrodynamics and delivers greater fuel efficiency at sea. Complete coverage of the operation — from aerial drone framing to ground-level technical detail — capturing the industrial scale of every stage.
