Offshore+pipelines

Pushing into the new energy frontier poses greater challenges for pipeline systems. As a pipeline technology leader, DNV is committed to support the industry continuously.

Addressing pipelines end to end

Pipeline systems represent significant financial investment and constitute a key element of the industrial and public value chain. Ensuring that each pipeline is designed, fabricated and operated in a safe, reliable and cost-effective manner involves a multitude of professional disciplines.

DNV supplies the industry with a full range of services and capabilities related to the development, operation and maintenance of pipeline systems.

DNV can assist you in selecting the right transport solution, evaluating aspects rating from availability and tariffs associated with existing infrastructure, to cost, revenue and risks related to a new solution.

The importance of a complete picture

From well to shore, from concept to operation, from internal flow to external threat - DNV offers the full range of pipeline-related services.

The assurance of full independence

DNV’s transparent and fully independent approach to verification, certification, quality surveillance and marine operations will help reduce and manage risk, thereby ensuring a successful project.

Safely extending the lifespan

As pipelines are put into operation or approach maturity in their design life, a different set of considerations and capabilities are required in order to manage the integrity of the pipeline system.

Taking the industry forward

DNV’s first pipeline code was issued in 1976. Since then we have created a series of internationally recognised standards and recommended practices together with the pipeline industry.
