LLOYD'S REGISTER

Company Outline

Founded in 1760, Lloyd’s Register is a global provider of engineering and professional services. Initially specialised in the maritime industry, it has since expanded into other markets, including offshore renewable energy.

Lloyd’s Register has been involved in offshore wind projects for over a decade. It offers assurance and compliance services, from the concept phase up to commissioning, and onwards into operations and decommissioning. Lloyd’s Register is also one of the few certification bodies that can offer certification services to offshore wind projects.

Having worked on a variety of offshore wind projects worldwide, Lloyd’s Register has the experience required to provide confidence that designs are compliant with agreed standards. It will identify compliance gaps in design and, when necessary, go beyond minimum code requirements to ensure successful project delivery and long-term operation.
