Norway-based marine technology company Kongsberg inked a deal for customers to share their data with quality assurance company DNV GL.

“We believe that broad maritime digitization and the value generation for ship owners will be achieved much faster if expert vendors work together to solve industry challenges," Kongsberg Digital President Hege Skryseth said.

The aim of the cooperation is to reduce the time, cost and complexity related to assurance services in the maritime sector.
