Gjelseth goes on to say that Norwegian Greentech received a new DNV certificate before Christmas, which is in accordance with IMO’s updated guidelines on treatment of ballast water. This is clear proof that the system has been designed to meet the most stringent requirements. We have recently completed all testing for approval from the US Coast Guard, we expect to receive the approval soon, which will open doors in new markets.
