These guidance notes outline the risk based inspection methodology for the hull structures of floating offshore units. It allows operators to prioritise and plan inspections based on risk, rather than by using traditional time-based inspection.

From the mid-1980s, the centre of the ship scrapping industry shifted towards Asia, in particular to India, Bangladesh and Pakistan. This industry was, and still is, virtually unregulated and has one of the worst safety records of any industry. It also causes massive environmental pollution. Initially, there was little awareness or acknowledgement of the appalling working conditions and environmental pollution. However, a concerted campaign by environmental groups has brought about widespread awareness of ship scrapping practices.
