ABS certifies SKF to provide condition monitoring services offshore

The ABS (American Bureau of Shipping) certified SKF USA Inc. with ‘External Specialist Recognition’ to provide condition monitoring services to the offshore industry.

The recognition follows a practical demonstration of ‘Condition Monitoring on Thrusters’ and a comprehensive quality audit of SKF Inc. by ABS.

“The ‘Certificate of Service Recognition’ from ABS is becoming a requirement for many companies when selecting a condition monitoring supplier and obtaining it is a notable achievement,” says Dave Staples, SKF global service manager for traditional energy. “It was certainly worth our time and effort to work closely with ABS, to complete the approval process which is recognized by all drilling contractors and shipping companies.”  

The company said achieving the certification from ABS is a key aspect of SKF’s long term commitment to developing effective asset life cycle management strategies that reduce the total cost of ownership for clients and, ultimately increase profitability and reliable performance for customers.
