Managing the risk of blackouts

Be prepared to manage the risk of blackout

As the shipping industry becomes ever more complex, it’s good to know you have a competent partner in DNV. For both newbuilding projects and fleets in operation, we expertly guide you through the entire process of compliance – smoothly and hassle-free – for timely delivery of your new vessel and high ship availability 

Newbuilding

DNV have developed voluntary class notations that may be granted to a vessel to indicate that it is in compliance with additional voluntary criteria that may be either specific to that vessel type or that goes beyond the minimum main class requirements.

Fleet in service

DNV offers decision-making support all the way from setting a safety ambition on blackout and loss of propulsion to implementation of actions and measures.

Our network of experts provides services globally, and has the capabilities, experience and track record to deliver high value solutions. We put technical matters and business decisions into context to achieve the optimal solution – providing our customers the basis to make good decisions, and take action to achieve sustainable results.
