VESSELMAN AND DNV GL TEAM UP TO OFFER OPTIMIZED SOLUTIONS FOR DRY-DOCKING MANAGEMENT

4/15/2019

Customers of VesselMan, a project management tool for dry-docking, will now be able to access DNV GL’s Best Practices for dry-docking as part of their services.

Dry-docking is an important part of a vessels mandatory maintenance regime and takes place regularly throughout the vessel’s life-cycle. However, without proper management and planning, shipowners and operators can often experience cost overruns, lengthy dock stays, and lost opportunities.

Teaming up for a lean and modern solution
Responding to these challenges, VesselMan recently teamed up with DNV GL to integrate DNV GL’s Best Practices for dry-docking into their cloud-based system.

TradeWinds writes about VesselMan

7/9/2018

VesselMan chief executive Glenn Edvardsen and chief operating officer and founder Stig Linna estimate that shipowners globally are forced to carry out about 20,000 or more dry-dockings, costing in the region of $75bn.
