ABS, a leading provider of classification and technical services to the global offshore industry, has been awarded the classification contract from PETRONAS, Malaysia’s national oil company, for the company’s second floating LNG facility (PFLNG 2). The vessel will be built at the Samsung Heavy Industries yard in Geoje, Korea.
“This is a very significant award for us,” says ABS Chairman and CEO Christopher J. Wiernicki . “It also is the natural next step for an organization that is widely recognized as the leader in the classification of offshore production units and LNG ships.”
