EER Technical Challenges
 “Extreme environmental conditions varying from solid stationary ice, dynamic ice,
grounded and ungrounded ice rubble to partial cover, and open water pose
formidable challenges
 No single evacuation method currently available (is) suitable for abandonment under
the full range of environmental/ ice conditions
 ISO 19906 (Arctic Offshore Structures Standard) enhances existing requirements by
establishing performance based goals from which designers set the functional
requirements of the EER system rather than relying on prescriptive measures alone
 (It) addresses primarily design requirements (and design optimization) for icecovered waters plus some key operational provisions impacted by cold climate”
from a presentation by Jim Poplin of ExxonMobil at an OGP
Workshop (Working in Extreme Conditions) in 2008

VNIIGAZ Plans for EER Documents
 In 2011 VNIIGAZ will start working on development of 2 normative documents for
personnel evacuation and rescue on offshore oil and gas installations.
 GOST P “Oil and gas industry. Offshore production installations. Evacuation and
rescue systems. Main requirements.”
 GOST P “Oil and gas industry. Offshore production installations. Evacuation routes
and temporary refuge. Main requirements.”
 These GOST standards will be based on the following documents:
-
ISO 19906,
ISO 15544,
ISO 13702,
NORSOK Z-013,
NORSOK S-001,
DNV-OS-A101,
Russian Federal Law No. 116-ФЗ “About industry safety of dangerous production objects”,
Russian Federal Law No. 123-ФЗ “Fire safety technical regulations”,
Doc no. ПБ 08-623-03 “Safety regulations during exploration and development of offshore oil
