ABS Expands Subsea Services

ABS has expanded its subsea services team to deliver specialized validation and verification services for subsea systems, including subsea hardware, flowlines, umbilicals, and risers.

These services include design review, inspection of physical components and regulatory services using performance data to support continuous service of new and existing assets.

“Offering best-in-class verification and validation services contributes to the safe and reliable operation of subsea systems,” said ABS chairman, president and CEO Christopher J. Wiernicki. “Our mission demands that we place safety at the core of everything we do, and as technology advances and more subsea systems are installed, industry is looking to us to help improve safety through independent third-party validation and verification.”

“Production from the subsea sector is expected to more than double by 2030,” said ABS subsea director John Upchurch. “This expansion brings a demand for the reliable services the industry has come to expect from the offshore classification leader. By expanding our subsea team, ABS provides operators with best-in-class services to ensure their projects meet the appropriate design, fabrication and installation requirements.”
