At DNV, we can help you safely and responsibly improve your business performance.
Improve your business performance
In the wake of major accidents and recent trends, compliance with legal safety requirements is no longer sufficient to satisfy stakeholders and society at large: clear management of safety and health risks is expected.
DNV helps customers keep ahead of regulations in order to safely and responsibly improve their business performance. Our approach tightly links safety requirements to asset performance. It seeks to achieve significant improvements in safety performance through enhanced design and asset reliability and focused operational controls.
DNV’s Safety Risk Management team consists of highly qualified engineers, economists, psychologists and human factor experts, supported by an excellent portfolio of risk-assessment software. Our cross-disciplinary expertise, in-depth industry insight, global experience and advanced risk methodologies provide unique safety risk management across the entire life cycle of projects and operations. By providing tactical business support, we deliver sustainable development and help improve financial performance.
Risk-based decision support
DNV has been a global leader in the development of robust risk-based assessment and decision support methods. These address hazard identification, consequence assessment, likelihood estimation and risk-based decision support. Risk-based processes deliver well beyond compliance requirements, and often at less overall life-cycle cost through innovative solutions.
Management systems & performance measures
Every company has a management system. The challenge is to develop, implement, review and improve systems to enhance business performance and align to developing industry norms. DNV has over 25 years of experience helping organisations realise the benefits of an effective integrated management system. Our systems incorporate current best practices and align safety, environment and quality objectives. We also modify systems to accommodate emerging industry initiatives such as integrating performance metrics for process safety.
Emergency planning & accident investigation
As an integral part of its risk management services, DNV helps companies to develop and maintain effective response plans to control their risk exposure.
Human factors & safety culture
Without enabling and enhancing adequate behaviour of management and staff, efforts to improve systems and technology could be in vain. As a result, human factors should be considered systematically
Operational safety
DNV applies the latest techniques to ensure that facilities are aware of all key operational and mechanical integrity requirements and that risks are rigorously controlled.
Working environment
The employees are the most important asset in all companies. DNV can help your organisation promote a safe, healthy, efficient and productive working environment.
Advanced simulation & modelling
The energy industry is expanding into new frontiers, often in extreme environments or scale of operations (arctic areas, LNG, deepwater). Standard analysis methods do not demonstrate the effects of these changes with sufficient resolution and there is a need for accurate simulation able to represent higher complexity and greater detail. This is achieved for fluid flow, fire and explosion analysis by applying Computational Fluid Dynamics integrated with advanced risk models. Dynamic structural response issues are addressed with Finite Element Methods.
Offshore leak detection JIP
DNV has taken the initiative to establish a joint-industry project (JIP) for developing a guideline for offshore leak detection. By contributing to this JIP, your company will be part of shaping the future of offshore leak detection and gaining state of the art knowledge in this emerging field.
