- All American Marine and ABB recently collaborated on new hybrid-electric ocean sampling vessel in California. Tell us about that project and how it came about.
We are excited to collaborate with All American Marine on this innovative project for Orange County Sanitation for their new ocean sampling vessels. This 19.8-meter vessel has been designed by Auckland based naval architect Teknicraft to support Orange County Sanitation District’s ocean monitoring program that has run for over 40 years in support of wastewater collection, treatment, disposal, and recycling services for 2.6 million residents of Orange County, CA. The program operates around 90 days each year, verifies that the Pacific Ocean remains safe for swimming, marine life and fisheries.
