More than 140 years of managing risk
 Det Norske Veritas (DNV) was established in 1864 in Norway
 The main scope of work was to identify, assess and manage risk
– initially for maritime insurance companies

DNV Offshore Standards


Benign Waters
 DNV OS-C-102 - Structural Design of Offshore Ships
- World-wide operation
- Benign waters - Environments at which the required to hull girder capacity
calculated according to the LRFD method is less than the minimum section
modulus according to the ‘Main Class Requirements’.


Benign Waters
 Alternative design procedures
- Alternative 1 - Ship Rules - The hull scantlings are based on the “main class
requirements”.No direct calculations of wave bending moments and shear
forces are required.
- Alternative 2 - LRFD method - The hull is designed according to the principles
given in Ch.1. The midship section modulus may be less than the ”main class
requirements”. When design Alternative 2, LRFD method, is applied, the
minimum midship section modulus according to the ”main class requirements”
may be reduced by maximum 25%.

Information – dimensions and steel grades
 You get an over-view from colour
display and printed numbers.
 Gives you access to the dimensions
and steel grades of plates, stiffeners
and girders
 Byclicking the structural parts you get
more details


Maintenance – Steel renewal / weight

Marking up all plates and/or
stiffeners within a 3D zone by Plates and stiffeners can be marked
defining and extruding a polygon up independently by using separate
zones


Maintenance – Coating Area Calculations

Marking up single structures for
Marking up all structures for
partial coating: top, one side (gray on
complete or part of the compartment
aft side means not coated)

Maintenance – Docking specifications
 Planning and cost
control prior/during a
docking of a vessel.
 Specification or for
verification purposes
of the figures given
by the ship repair
yard.


Maintenance – Emergency Repairs

 Facilitates
the
documentation of damage:
- Location
- Extent
- Type of structure
 Noneed for long and
complex descriptions.
 Enables overview and
control the expenses.


Monitoring - Coating Monitoring Tool
 The Nauticus Coating
Monitoring Tool takes
advantage of 3D technology to
visualise the coating status
and calculate re-coating areas.
The tool also supports a
structured recording of coating
inspection results referring to
pre-defined cells/bays of the
ballast tanks. Finally, it assists
you in preparing the re-coating
specification and estimates the
costs.
 When tool is used one has
stop to take a risk of
unpredicted situations in
respect to mintenance or
failure.


Monitoring – UTM

This improves UTM measurement support improved
Thickness process: shorter time,
quality and communication, input to maintenance
The Nauticus UTM Tool improves planning, execution and
strategy: of ultrasonic thicknesslower cost
evaluation better control and measurements.
