 ABS
ABS is a leading international classification society committed to the highest standards of safety, integrity and service.
The mission of ABS is to serve the public interest as well as the needs of our clients by promoting the security of life, property, and the natural environment primarily through the development and verification of standards for the design, construction and operational maintenance of marine-related facilities.
ABS is dedicated to providing leadership in the development of new technologies and methodologies intended to improve the safety standards of the marine industry. Engineering expertise is applied to subjects ranging from offshore platforms and tanker, bulk carrier and container ship structures to risk analyses and human factors engineering.
ABS works together with clients to improve the safety and efficiency of their operations. Through the continued development and application of technology such as ABS SafeHull and SafeShip, owners and operators can better know and understand a vessel's structural performance and maintenance requirements. The integration of risk management into classification allows us to better focus inspections, target maintenance and further improve ship operations.
Practical advice and solutions help our clients with the implementation of new regulations and meet the challenges of modern day ship operations.
ABS is a truly global organisation with three operating divisions, Americas, Europe and Pacific with headquarters in Houston, London and Singapore respectively.
Affiliated companies provide risk consulting, structural engineering and management system consulting services to industry, business and governments worldwide.
