DNV GL will offer a range of verification services to Apache, including a number of innovative initiatives including next generation verification technologies, 3D automated approvals and data mining technology, with the aim to ensure that the verification contribution is most cost-effective and provides the required assurance towards stakeholders and regulatory authorities.
