Bureau Veritas-classed fleet passes 10,000 vessels

The classed fleet of the international classification society Bureau Veritas (BV) has grown to 10,055 vessels, totalling 93.4million gt. In addition, 1,790 inland water vessels are classed with BV. The growth is attributed to strong deliveries of newbuildings and also to a significant inflow of vessels in service attracted by BV’s range of services, the classification society said.
