1 Scope
This document specifies requirements for managing and controlling the weight and centre
of gravity (CoG) of offshore facilities by means of mass management during all lifecycle
phases including; conceptual design, front end engineering design (FEED), detail engineering,
construction and operations. These can be new facilities (greenfield) or modifications
to existing facilities (brownfield).
Weight management is necessary throughout operations, decommissioning and removal
to facilitate structural integrity management (SIM). The provisions of this document
are applicable to fixed and floating facilities of all types.
Weight management only includes items with static mass.
Snow and ice loads are excluded as they are not considered to be part of the facility.
Dynamic loads are addressed in ISO 19904-1, ISO 19901-6 and ISO 19901-7.
This document specifies:
a) requirements for managing and controlling weights and CoGs of assemblies and entire
facilities;
b) requirements for managing weight and CoG interfaces;
c) standardized terminology for weight and CoG estimating and reporting;
d) requirements for determining not-to-exceed (NTE) weights and budget weights;
