Googling for "ocaml abnf" directs to
https://github.com/avsm/ocaml-abnf
which seem to be an experimental project, but a good starting point.
It has a lexer and a parser for abnf grammars,
https://github.com/avsm/ocaml-abnf/blob/master/abnf_lexer.mll
https://github.com/avsm/ocaml-abnf/blob/master/abnf_parser.mly
a type representing the ABNF abstract syntax tree
https://github.com/avsm/ocaml-abnf/blob/master/abnf_signature.ml
a parser for the grammars embedded in a small command-line tool (that
can also output abnf grammars in several representations)
https://github.com/avsm/ocaml-abnf/blob/master/abnf_cmd.ml
and two examples of abnf grammars
https://github.com/avsm/ocaml-abnf/blob/master/http.abnf
