About us
For many years in the maritime industry, I've seen how compliance with complex rules, regulations and standards in order to obtain the required approvals, and certifications can create uncertainty — and even lead to costly delays.
MARREG can make the maritime approval and certification process easier.
With my background as a naval architect and experience from classification societies, regulatory authorities, manufacturers, and international regulatory work e.g. IMO and INSA, I can assist maritime companies in understanding what the rules imply — and, just as importantly, how they interact..
