Class notation defines a ship's risk level and affects insurance rates. Classing a ship ensures it is fit, meets jurisdiction requirements, and assures capital investment is protected. Major classification societies worldwide include Lloyd's Register, American Bureau of Shipping, Bureau Veritas, Det Norske Veritas, and others. Societies conduct surveys to certify ships comply with classification rules and prevent substandard conditions.

    that we sort out ships categories according to
    the level of confidence we assign them,
    further to the results of the assessment

    years during which its validity is subject to
    compulsory periodical surveys
