DNV GL is an international accredited registrar and classification society headquartered in Høvik, Norway. The company currently has about 14,500 employees and 350 offices operating in more than 100 countries, and provides services for several industries including maritime, renewable energy, oil & gas, electrification, food & beverage and healthcare. It was created in 2013 as a result of a merger between two leading organizations in the field - Det Norske Veritas (Norway) and Germanischer Lloyd (Germany).


For users of Linux and macOS: The DNV GL Software is unfortunately only available for Windows operating systems. The easiest way to fix this is to install Windows as a dual boot configuration (see our guide) or to install Windows as a virtual PC inside your existing operating system. This can be done in various ways, but we have made a guide on Installing a virtual machine using VirtualBox.

If you do not have a valid Windows license, this can be acquired for free by following the instructions from NTNU Innsida. After the dual boot or the virtual machine is configured, you can follow this guide as normal.
