Chunwee Ng
Profile
Biography
Dr Ng joined Singapore’s applied university, SIT from the marine and offshore energy industry after nearly two decades of working in a shipyard (ST Marine) and later at marine classification society (DNV). His expertise is in the design of marine, process and safety systems onboard ships and mobile offshore units where he was involved in the engineering design, review and management of many new shipbuilding projects spanning from landing craft, containership, submarine support vessel, RoRo ship, and Ropax ferry to complex offshore projects like drilling jack-up, floatel submersible, well-intervention unit and FPSO.
