The office will be headed by area manager Chen Keng, “Central China is home to dozens of shipyards, many industry manufacturers and is therefore one of the most important areas for DNV GL to focus on in China. The launch of our expanded new office demonstrates our commitment”, said Torgeir Sterri, DNV GL vp and regional manager for Greater China.

“More expertise and competence in all ship types and offshore units as well as a strong focus on research, technology and innovation enables DNV GL to support the transformation and development of central China’s maritime industry more effectively. Together with our customers, we will contribute to a safer, smarter and greener future”, he added.

The expanded office accommodates all staff from both legacy DNV and legacy GL. “Our customers now have easier access to our services. This puts us in a much better position to support them, strengthen our existing cooperations and generate more business in the area," said Chen.
