Jacking gears are by definition the most characteristic systems of self-elevating units and jack-ups. However, this gear remains often neglected on board, with a high potential for dire consequences. In order to achieve higher availability, reduce the risk of gear failure and lower the life cycle cost, DNV is inviting the industry to participate in a Joint Industry Project (JIP).

In 2012, DNV strengthened its global market positions within the maritime, oil & gas, energy and business assurance sectors. Financial performance was strong.

ISO 26262 addresses the specific needs of the automotive industry in the area of electrical and/or electronic systems functional safety. Applying the standard to products and processes will contribute to safer vehicles for our roads.
