New offshore marine technology aims to recognize next waves of innovation and new trends of future studies in the sector
Some of the most asked questions today by marine industry leaders, including ABS: Autonomous vessels will dominate the oceans? Can artificial intelligence design an optimized offshore asset? Is nuclear energy the ultimate energy source of the future? These questions are brought to the fore as a wave of new technologies are about to revolutionize the offshore sector, according to the Mobilidade Sampa website.
ABS understands the coming waves of innovation and is charting a course for the future of marine and offshore technologies with a new report, Technology Trends: Exploring the Future of Marine Innovation.
The disclosure, launched at ABS's Hellenic Technical Committee, provides executive insight into the future of advanced marine and offshore technologies by providing a vision and timeline for key technology milestones in the journey towards digitization and net zero emissions.

Marine technology in the offshore sector
“Innovation in the maritime industry is cyclical and we are on the cusp of a new wave of technologies and changes,” said Patrick Ryan, Senior Vice President of Engineering and Global Technology at ABS, according to the Mobilidade Sampa website.
He added: “Guided by close cooperation with industry leaders here in Athens and beyond, and our own understanding of the market, ABS is able to share where we think these technologies are going. We offer this publication as a high-level roadmap for the clean energy transition of industry, digitization and applied research in areas such as new materials and computer-aided design.”
ABS has a long history of supporting the offshore marine industry by safely embracing new technologies, which is at the heart of its safety mission. As advanced technologies take center stage in the coming decades, ABS looks forward to providing guidance and clarity to the industry, supporting safe adoption and optimizing operations on the journey towards net zero emissions.
