The American Bureau of Shipping (ABS), a classification society, has entered into a joint development agreement<\/a> with South Korea’s<\/a> HD Hyundai Heavy Industries<\/a> (HD HHI) to support the creation of a new U.S.-flagged oil and chemical tanker, according to ABS.<\/p>\n Under the agreement, the two organizations are pooling resources to develop a 50,000 DWT vessel designed for U.S. flag operations. HD HHI brings extensive experience and advanced technical capabilities in the design and construction of such tankers, as indicated by Executive Vice President Dongjin Lee. The initiative anticipates growing demand for U.S.-flagged vessels, driven by U.S. shipbuilding revitalization policies, and aims to proactively address specific U.S. Coast Guard technical requirements. Through this collaboration, HD HHI seeks to strengthen its competitiveness in the U.S. market and deliver safe, compliant, and high-value vessel solutions.<\/p>\n As part of the deal, ABS will review the HD HHI design in accordance with ABS rules and U.S. Coast Guard requirements. Patrick Ryan, ABS Senior Vice President and Chief Technology Officer, noted that ABS has provided owners and operators with insight and guidance from the first 100,000 DWT tanker to today’s most advanced designs, always with a focus on safety. He added that the initiative with HD HHI reflects ABS’s continuing commitment to supporting practical, forward-looking solutions for the next generation of U.S.-flagged vessels.<\/p>\n This partnership follows shortly after ABS gave SBM Offshore the go-ahead for the Dutch company’s seawater intake riser technology, developed in collaboration with Shell.<\/p>\n Interactive table based on the Store Companies dataset for this report.<\/p>\n \t\t\t\tSort: Rank \t\t\t\t\t# \t\t\t\t\t\t1 \t\t\t\t\t\t2 \t\t\t\t\t\t3 \t\t\t\t\t\t4 \t\t\t\t\t\t5 \t\t\t\t\t\t6 \t\t\t\t\t\t7 \t\t\t\t\t\t8 \t\t\t\t\t\t9 \t\t\t\t\t\t10 \t\t\t\t\t\t11 \t\t\t\t\t\t12 \t\t\t\t\t\t13 \t\t\t\t\t\t14 \t\t\t\t\t\t15 \t\t\t\t\t\t16 \t\t\t\t\t\t17 \t\t\t\t\t\t18 \t\t\t\t\t\t19 \t\t\t\t\t\t20 \t\t\t\t\t\t21 \t\t\t\t\t\t22 \t\t\t\t\t\t23 \t\t\t\t\t\t24 \t\t\t\t\t\t25 \t\t\t\t\t\t26 \t\t\t\t\t\t27 \t\t\t\t\t\t28 \t\t\t\t\t\t29 \t\t\t\t\t\t30 This report provides a comprehensive view of the tanker industry in the United States, tracking demand, supply, and trade flows across the national value chain. It explains how demand across key channels and end-use segments shapes consumption patterns, while also mapping the role of input availability, production efficiency, and regulatory standards on supply.<\/p>\n Beyond headline metrics, the study benchmarks prices, margins, and trade routes so you can see where value is created and how it moves between domestic suppliers and international partners. The analysis is designed to support strategic planning, market entry, portfolio prioritization, and risk management in the tanker landscape in the United States.<\/p>\n Quick navigation Domestic demand is shaped by both household and industrial usage, with trade flows linking local supply to imports and exports. The report combines market sizing with trade intelligence and price analytics for the United States. It covers both historical performance and the forward outlook to 2035, allowing you to compare cycles, structural shifts, and policy impacts.<\/p>\n Market size and growth in value and volume terms This report provides a consistent view of market size, trade balance, prices, and per-capita indicators for the United States. The profile highlights demand structure and trade position, enabling benchmarking against regional and global peers.<\/p>\n Methodology<\/p>\n The analysis is built on a multi-source framework that combines official statistics, trade records, company disclosures, and expert validation. Data are standardized, reconciled, and cross-checked to ensure consistency across time series.<\/p>\n International trade data (exports, imports, and mirror statistics) All data are normalized to a common product definition and mapped to a consistent set of codes. This ensures that comparisons across time are aligned and actionable.<\/p>\n Forecasts to 2035<\/p>\n The forecast horizon extends to 2035 and is based on a structured model that links tanker demand and supply to macroeconomic indicators, trade patterns, and sector-specific drivers. The model captures both cyclical and structural factors and reflects known policy and technology shifts in the United States.<\/p>\n Historical baseline: 2012-2025 Each projection is built from national historical patterns and the broader regional context, allowing the report to show where growth is concentrated and where risks are elevated.<\/p>\n Price analysis and trade dynamics<\/p>\n Prices are analyzed in detail, including export and import unit values, regional spreads, and changes in trade costs. The report highlights how seasonality, freight rates, exchange rates, and supply disruptions influence pricing and margins.<\/p>\n Price benchmarks by country and sub-region Key producers, exporters, and distributors are profiled with a focus on their operational scale, geographic footprint, product mix, and market positioning. This helps identify competitive pressure points, partnership opportunities, and routes to differentiation.<\/p>\n Business focus and production capabilities Quantify domestic demand and identify the most attractive segments This report is designed for manufacturers, distributors, importers, wholesalers, investors, and advisors who need a clear, data-driven picture of tanker dynamics in the United States.<\/p>\n FAQ The market size aggregates consumption and trade data, presented in both value and volume terms.<\/p>\n How are the forecasts to 2035 built?<\/p>\n The projections combine historical trends with macroeconomic indicators, trade dynamics, and sector-specific drivers.<\/p>\n Does the report cover prices and margins?<\/p>\n Yes, it includes export and import unit values, regional spreads, and a pricing outlook to 2035.<\/p>\n Which benchmarks are included?<\/p>\n The report benchmarks market size, trade balance, prices, and per-capita indicators for the United States.<\/p>\n Can this report support market entry decisions?<\/p>\n Yes, it highlights demand hotspots, trade routes, pricing trends, and competitive context.<\/p>\n \t\t\t\t\t\t1.
