Highlights

Trust in DNV reaches record levels

82% of respondents to our 2022 brand survey trust DNV, up from 78% in the last survey in 2018. The survey comprised 5,000 responses from a representative sample of customers and prospects around the globe and across our markets.
The result signals not only a healthy DNV brand, but also the growing importance of assurance providers as providers of trust while many other institutions are experiencing a drop in trust.

Containership survey

The world’s leading classification society

With 18% of the total world fleet measured by gross tonnage, we retained our position as the world’s largest classification society. DNV secured some 23% of all ship newbuild orders measured in gross tonnes in 2022.
For the seventh year running, DNV was named the top classification society by the leading maritime newspaper Lloyd’s List.
