ISO 17776:2000 Petroleum and natural gas industries - Offshore production installations - Guidelines on tools and techniques for hazard identification and risk assessment
This International Standard describes some of the principal tools and techniques that are commonly used for the identification and assessment of hazards associated with offshore oil and gas exploration and production activities, including seismic and topographical surveys, drilling and well operations, field development, operations, decommissioning and disposal together with the necessary logistical support of each of these activities. It provides guidance on how these tools and techniques can be used to assist in development of strategies both to prevent hazardous events and to control and mitigate any events that may arise.
This International Standard is applicable to:
— fixed offshore structures;
— floating production, storage and off-take systems;
for the petroleum and natural gas industries.
This International Standard is not applicable to design and construction aspects of mobile offshore units that fall under the jurisdiction of the International Maritime Organization.
This International Standard is not intended to be used as part of certification criteria, and no defect in the management of risks should be inferred if any of the tools and techniques covered by this International Standard are not applied to an installation.
