DNV GL releases the new issue of MARITIME IMPACT magazine
DNV GL has published this year’s second issue of the classification society’s customer and stakeholder magazine MARITIME IMPACT. The theme of the issue is: ‘Smart Operations’.
“Today’s shipping industry is facing a challenging operational environment characterized by fierce competition, economic uncertainties and more demanding regulations. At the same time, technology is developing rapidly – some of which can help companies improve their operations, both in terms of efficiency and safety. As a leading classification society, we can support the sector in adapting to this ‘new normal’. Keeping abreast of technological innovation and finding practical applications for use in the maritime community is our top priority,” says Knut Ørbeck-Nilssen, CEO of DNV GL – Maritime.
In this issue of MARITIME IMPACT, the reader will find many examples where DNV GL is assisting its customers to benefit from advanced technologies: drones improve surveys of cargo tanks and hard-to-reach spaces; e-certification enables quick certificate authentication around the world; machine learning enhances responsiveness and quality; and much more.
