Abs is perfectly acceptable, it's in Chambers. That seems to be regarded as an acceptable authority.
Chambers has "rabbit" = "same as go-devil" and "go-devil" = "a cylindrical plug with brushes, scrapers and rollers able to move, under the oil pressure, through a pipeline to clean it".
The abbreviation "abs." = "absorbent" is also in Chambers.
