Offshore staff
GOTHENBURG, Sweden – SKF USA Inc.’s factory in Houston is now certified with the “External Specialist Recognition” by the American Bureau of Shipping (ABS) 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.”
