DNV has certified NYK Line’s new training centre in Singapore. NYK Line considers the centre a vital part of their efforts to enhance the education of officers and crew.
DNV’s certification of the centre, including advanced equipment as NYK Line’s new cargo simulator for VLCCs, confirms the excellent cooperation between the two global companies.
NYK-Singapore’s Chairman and CEO, Takamaru Ishida, who received the certificates from DNV during a visit to DNV’s headquarters at Høvik, stressed NYK’s efforts for better education and enhanced safety. He expressed his appreciation for the good cooperation with DNV and the professional contribution from DNV’s auditor: Captain Aksel Nordholm.
“The rapid growth of the world fleet will increase the demand for competent crew,” says Head of DNV SeaSkill Erling Linna. “Training centres need to improve both their quality and efficiency to meet this demand, and NYK is setting an important example.”
