 Due to the increasing number of maritime clients in Western and Southern Sweden, Germanischer Lloyd (GL) is restructuring its organisation in Sweden. From March 1, the Country Office is located in Gothenburg. The country management is sited in the existing GL Gothenburg Station Office.
GL is a ship classification society and an international technical
assurance and consulting company for the energy sector. The company will
maintain a strong presence in Stockholm, Gothenburg and Karlstad in
Sweden, Turku and Helsinki in Finland, Oslo, Alesund and Bergen in
Norway, Copenhagen, Alborg, Arhus and Fredericia in Denmark and in
Reykjavik in Iceland.
Germanischer Lloyd employs 6,800 engineers, surveyors, experts and
administrative staff in 80 countries. The global network consists of
more than 200 locations around the globe. Ship owners, shipyards, the
maritime supply industry and some 130 flag states are the primary
customers of GL's ship classification and maritime consulting
activities. GL classes container ships, tankers, bulk carriers,
multipurpose vessels, high-speed ferries and cruise ships as well as
yachts and sport boats. 6,903 ships are currently surveyed on a regular
basis by GL.
Besides traditional classification services of plan approval, inspection
and certification of materials and components as well as technical
assessment of ships in service, GL puts particular emphasis on ship
energy efficiency and environmental issues. The new business line
"Maritime Solutions" provides expert advice towards optimizing hull
design, propeller performance, engine output, energy management, and
even crew performance. In addition, the scope of services covers
consultancy, advanced engineering, certification, training and software
solutions.
