The international community’s focus on risk and zero tolerance of accidents have produced a great demand for safety and quality-assurance services.

DNV has spent more than NOK 200 millions to acquire companies that further strengthen its expertise in the field of managing risk, primarily aimed at the oil and gas market.

DNV had revenues of NOK 5,954 millions last year, producing an operating profit after tax of NOK 153 millions.
The number of employees increased last year by 440 to 6,200, among other things due to the acquisition of a total of six compa-nies in the field of risk management close to year-end.

”A strong financial platform ensures our independence when working to safeguard life, property and the environment. DNV’s solidity is higher than ever, with an equity of NOK 3,116 millions, representing an equity ratio of 65. This gives DNV a unique oppor-tunity to pursue new initiatives,” says DNV’s CEO Miklos Konkoly-Thege.
