World-class offshore standards with a support closer to your operation

DNV offshore service specifications (DNV-OSS), Offshore Standards (DNV-OS) and Recommended Practices (DNV-RP) cover a range of applications that are relevant to the industry and known for its comprehensiveness.

Hull Inspection Manual

Help ship operators to be in control of the ship’s condition through well-defined procedures for Planned Inspections and Maintenance. Includes ship-specific identification of critical areas, unique 3D illustrations, acceptance criteria, and inspection plans.

Integrated Software Dependent Systems (ISDS)

To support yards and owners in controlling the above integration risk, DNV has developed Integrated Software Dependent Systems (ISDS). ISDS is based on proven methodology to ensure software integrity from the newbuilding process throughout the unit’s lifetime. Through specific process requirements, ISDS helps prevent software issues that may result in costly delays at the yard.

Self-elevating units

DNV has taken the opportunity to increase attention to the Jack-Up market segment. A new dedicated OSS, 104 Rules of Classification for Self-Elevating units, reflects this attention. It ensures the right interpretations and requirements in compliance with market standards and international regulations, gives a complete overview covering all the different operational phases of your unit and has adapted procedures ensuring a minimum of interference with operations.
