New and Innovative Services Providing Improved Competitiveness for Our Clients

The objective of research at Germanischer Lloyd is to develop new and innovative services providing improved competitiveness for our maritime customers. Fast application of research results guarantees state-of-the-art support of your business. These activities focus on improved safety, less environmental impact, higher availability and more efficient classification services.

Our current strategic research targets improved passenger and cargo safety (optimized evacuation, performance-based fire engineering and risk reduction for offshore wind parks), higher availability of ship machinery systems, and reduced environmental impact (fuel cells onboard ships, emission indexing and dismantling of ships).

To support our Consulting Services we develop state-of-the-art computer-aided-engineering methods and tools to enhance current and future engineering applications in terms of efficiency, robustness and interconnectivity.
