Summary
Guidance explains HSE expectations for assessing offshore installations’ structural response to attendant vessel collisions. It covers structural analysis, damage escalation, safety-case evidence and design criteria for new and existing installations. Simplified techniques and finite element analysis support assessment of impact capacity, vessel displacement and tolerable velocity, with periodic reviews and marine controls where required.
