The July edition of the Rules is available for free online

Almost all DNV service documents (Rules, Standards, Guidelines, Offshore codes etc.) are now available to our customers for free online. While this service used to be paid for, our customers are now able to access them by following this link.

Enhanced readability
Electronic readability of the service documents is currently being improved . The new format will be a one column version, as opposed to the two column format previously used. The service documents will be transferred to one-column versions as they are revised. See Rules for Classification of Ships:
Partt.8, Ch.1
Part 8, Ch.2
DNV Statutory interpretations.

From now on, the electronic pdf version of the service documents is the officially binding document. Additionally, printing has been stopped for all documents except the Rules to encourage environmentally use. A cost efficient print-on-demand solution will be considered for the future, should there be requests from our customers. Until then, the cost for the printed rules has increased from July 2010.

For any questions, please contact Rules@dnv.com
