Sustainable transport systems - understand, improve and develop

As transport and other logistics systems become more complex, and the perspectives of the future more uncertain, there is a growing need to view improvement measures in a wider context. There is no single solution to the issue of increased energy and environmental efficiency. By contrast, there are several small and large measures that in the end may make up a radical improvement strategy.

By taking a holistic view of the maritime transport system our aim is to assist you in understanding, improving and developing sustainable maritime transport systems.

Our approach
We build upon the century-long presence and experience of DNV in the shipping industry, and our acclaimed technical competence and advisory services in both technical and operational issues. We model and represent the overall transport or logistics system to evaluate its strengths and weaknesses, and suggest which improvement measures can be taken with the best payoff.

MTS development

Using the collective resources and tools to assist in gradual or radical improvement or development of new and innovative logistics concepts.

Energy & emission mapping

Calculating energy efficiency of an entire maritime logistics chain and generating environmental (e.g. carbon) footprint to detect its specific performance.

Opportunity assessment

Using simulations, optimisation or other forms of analysis to detect weaknesses, vulnerabilities or inefficiencies so as to illuminate areas where improvement potentials are found.

Ship benchmarking

Analysing performance and benchmarking ships on technical, environmental or commercial parameters, against own fleet or competitors.

Ship design scenario

Establishing scenarios for different ship concepts, or different operating patterns, or performing sensitivity analyses on the same to detect areas for improvement.

Offshore supply operations

Performing a total review of offshore transport system and logistics network for a given operation.
