DNV and Kongsberg expand data integration

The collaboration will connect Kongsberg Maritime’s digital fleet management solution with DNV’s Veracity platform using DNV’s OVD interface standard and API technology.

The integration will allow vessel operators to transfer operational data between the two systems through a controlled and scalable process while retaining full ownership and control of their information.

The companies said the initiative is intended to reduce complexity for shipowners and operators seeking to use vessel data across a range of assurance, compliance and performance management services. By adopting common data standards and secure digital pipelines, the partnership aims to improve data quality while reducing manual administration.

“Standardised and trusted access to operational vessel data is fundamental to accelerating digital assurance and improving decision making across the maritime industry,” said Mikkel Skou, executive director, Veracity by DNV at DNV.

The integration is expected to support environmental reporting requirements and provide customers with more reliable operational insights. It is also designed to serve as a foundation for future digital maritime services that increasingly depend on accurate and validated vessel data.

“By connecting Kongsberg Maritime with DNV Veracity, we are making it easier for customers like Wisby to turn operational data into trusted reporting and practical insight,” said Anders Bryhni, senior vice president, Digital Ocean at Kongsberg Maritime. “This collaboration shows how stronger integration can reduce manual work, improve data quality, and give customers greater confidence in the decisions they make every day.”

Early results have already been seen by Swedish operator Wisby Tankers, which has participated in the collaboration.

“Already, the collaboration has helped address several data quality issues and improved the consistency of our reporting,” said Jon Rejfeldt, technical superintendent at Wisby Tankers. “Working with two trusted partners gives us confidence in both the quality of our data and the credibility of our reporting.”
