The renewed MoU between DNV and PCL highlights our strong partnership in pursuit of improved operational efficiency and reduced GHG emissions. We’re excited to continue leveraging our broad expertise to support PCL’s transition.”
“We are pleased to be growing our partnership with PCL through this MoU today, which signifies their confidence and trust in our technical capabilities.
