Shallow water mining of seabed minerals has been around for a long time. Recently, the demand for metals that support the transition to electric vehicles and renewable energy have pushed the idea of subsea mining to the forefront.
Reliable and environmentally sound mining of seabed minerals requires new technologies and solutions that support safer subsea mining offshore. ABS answers the challenge with the recently published ABS Subsea Mining Guide, the industry’s first international classification guidance that provides Class requirements for offshore mining units.
Join us as we explore the depths of the growing field of subsea mining. Our speakers will share the latest insights on subsea mining, recent technology advancements, and the guidance offered with the ABS Subsea Mining Guide.
