  • Rating12345

Bentley Systems, Incorporated, the leading company dedicated to providing comprehensive software solutions for sustaining infrastructure, today announced, during its first Annual Corporate Update conference call, that it has acquired the SACS business from Engineering Dynamics, Inc. SACS is an integrated finite element structural analysis suite of programs that uniquely provides for the design, fabrication, installation, operations, and maintenance of offshore structures, including oil platforms and wind farms. Thirty-eight years of focus on these specialized requirements have made SACS the analysis mainstay for most of the world’s offshore engineers. Virtually all of the world’s energy companies specify SACS software for use by their engineering firms across the lifecycle of fixed offshore platforms. Among these firms are DORIS Engineering, Kellogg Brown & Root (KBR), Saipem, Technip, Wood Group, and WorleyParsons. Other users include engineering certification firms such as American Bureau of Shipping, Bureau Veritas Group, China Classification Society, Germanischer Lloyd AG, and Lloyd’s Register Group.
