Offshore and Process Industries

Petrochemical exploration and production are perhaps the most hazardous markets for which ABS Consulting provides solutions. The hazards experienced can be both naturally occurring as well as man-made.

In regard to the exploitation of oil and gas, current demands are such that the environments containing known reserves are being found in more challenging locations. For onshore applications, these may occur in regions of more extreme weather systems and increased seismic activity. Offshore, the trend is towards deeper water and more erratic sea states. In some of these instances the political status and security condition is often elevated, adding complexities to the overall operational risk profile.

The solutions offered to the offshore, marine and onshore process industries are broadly serviced through the categories of facility risk, safety and integrity.

ABS Consulting's ultimate parent company, ABS, currently enjoys an unparalleled market share with respect to classification and certification of floating facilities such as FSOs, FPSOs, semi-submersibles, TLPs and spars. The combined talents of the international groups within Consulting and the Advance Analysis and Technology Groups within ABS provide for a team with a range of analysis capabilities to handle the asset management solutions required by our customers.
