Safeguarding and improving business performance

The power of joint innovation

Every year we invite our staff that work close with our customers to come up with new ideas for service and technology development. As a consequence we can address important industry issues. Our partners and customers have first-hand access to the output of these efforts. We are proud to present the results of some of the recent efforts here. Take advantage.

The projects now in the pipeline are no less exiting than those we have completed. Our ambitions are higher than ever and we invite our partners to join us in the pursuit of new achievements. Let’s join forces.

How to JIP with DNV

We are excited about our new proposals and the prospect of developing them together with the industry. Would you like to join in?

Cold climate

Maritime transportation of oil and gas in Arctic areas will increase in the future. Safe and reliable operation in cold climate will therefore become of vital importance, especially since this area is often classified as sensitive.

Low carbon shipping

By accumulating results from a number of research projects and experience gained from energy efficiency studies, DNV has published a study that demonstrates the potential for cutting emissions from the world shipping fleet in the year 2030.

The world’s fleet is going to change as we head for 2020

The ratification of IMO’s Ballast Water Management Convention is not yet certain, and the global sulphur limit in 2020 is subject to a review in 2018. What is certain is the new emission control areas and the energy efficiency design requirements that will soon enter into force. Certain or uncertain – all have a profound effect on the shipping industry’s uptake of new technologies. DNV’s look into the coming eight years, gives a clear answer: the world’s fleet composition is going to change as we head for 2020.

GREEN DOLPHIN - a new Handysize bulk carrier concept design

A new Handysize bulk carrier concept design - the Green Dolphin, created by the Shanghai Merchant Ship Design & Research Institute (SDARI) and development partners DNV and Wärtsilä was launched at Posidonia.

2012-06-07Class Rules for battery powered vessels

Battery powered vessels are here, and DNV project staff are not only tracking their development but leading their classification.

2012-06-07FPSO fatigue revisited

In this project, DNV re-evaluated fatigue analysis tools for FSOs and FPSOs. The result is significant software improvements to predict system tracking, inadequate fatigue strength and repair needs.

2012-06-06Hull Integrity Management for offshore class vessels

Following an intensive three-year development programme, DNV launched HIM, Hull Integrity Management, a web-based service that provides owners with the ability to take a more active role in assessing their fleet’s hull condition.
