Published By | Publication Date | Number of Pages |
DIN | 2015-12 | 74 |
This International Standard describes the objectives and functional requirements for the control and mitigation of fires and explosions on offshore installations used for the development of hydrocarbon resources. This International Standard is applicable to: – fixed offshore structures; – floating systems for production, storage and offloading; – petroleum and natural gas industries. Mobile offshore units as defined in this International Standard and subsea installations are excluded, although many of the principles contained in this International Standard can be used as guidance. This International Standard is based on an approach where the selection of control and mitigation measures for fires and explosions is determined by an evaluation of hazards on the offshore installation. The methodologies employed in this assessment and the resultant recommendations will differ depending on the complexity of the production process and facilities, type of facility (i.e. open or enclosed), manning levels, and the environmental conditions associated with the area of operation. NOTE Statutory requirements, rules and regulations can in addition be applicable for the individual offshore installation concerned.
