The Royal HaskoningDHV team first completed an initial market study and a site selection report. The team established a masterplan and tender design for the shipyard, which provided an efficient and productive operational layout for the ship repair and shipbuilding activities.​

The design included marine civil engineering, dredging, navigation, workshops, office buildings, roadways, paving, mechanical and electrical (M&E) elements. ​A 3D computer visualization of the shipyard was created together with a 2m x 3m physical model. ​​
