Verifavia to offer EU MRV and IMO DCS verification services

         

In a recent announcement, Verifavia announced that it has signed a strategic cooperation agreement with the Liberian Registry to conduct IMO DCS and EU MRV verification services for Liberian-flagged vessels. The Liberian Registry – the second largest in the world – includes more than 4,200 vessels aggregating 150+ million gross tonnes, representing 12 percent of the world’s ocean going fleet.   
 
As part of the new strategic cooperation – the company’s first major step as an IMO DCS (data collection system) verifier –  Verifavia Shipping will leverage its existing knowledge and expertise as an independent EU Monitoring, Reporting and Verification (MRV) dual-accredited verifier to deliver streamlined and efficient verification services to Liberian-registered vessels. Verifavia will offer verification services under both the IMO’s DCS and the EU’s MRV regulations, which have clear objectives to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from shipping.

Flag state administrations who are interested in Verifavia’s IMO DCS and EU MRV verification services should email contact@verifavia-shipping.com.
