April 27 (LNGJ) - The American Bureau of Shipping, the US maritime classification and technical services company, held its annual meeting in New York and Chairman, President and Chief Executive Christopher J. Wiernicki reported that “2015 was a year of moving forward in strong and sustainable ways with a relentless focus on our class-centric strategy.” The ABS-classed fleet surpassed 230 million gross tons, a nearly five percent growth from the previous year. “ABS provided approval for many new concepts such as a dual-fuel bulk carrier design, innovative LNG containment systems and an offshore LNG receiving, storage, regasification, and bunkering terminal,” Wiernicki said.
