DNV Petroleum Services now has a global research network with the addition of a research and development (R&D) unit in the company's Fujairah fuel testing facility. The new setup complements DNVPS' existing research units in Singapore, Oslo, Rotterdam and the USA.

Equipped with a complete range of advanced analytical equipment, including Fuel Ignition Analyser and Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry instruments, the R&D centre in Fujairah will strengthen DNVPS' capability in identifying fuel contaminants and their impact on ship operation and safety.
