Russian Register of Shipping - Guarantee for quality and safety
As a participant RS has submitted its Rules for the Classification, Construction and Equipment of Mobile Offshore Drilling Units (MODU) and Fixed Offshore Platforms (FOP).
The Rules are based on the scientific research carried out by the leading scientific organizations of Russia (in total over 40 research works).
The Rules are systematically being improved and in the 2008 the third edition was published. The new edition is based upon the IMO and IACS recommendations and the latest research results as regards the advanced study of the external loads on the FOP hull structure, incorporating the requirements to the TLP and Spar installations in the Rules, further improvement of the formal safety assessment of MODU and FOP, continuous monitoring of the FOP subject to the heavy ice loads.
RS allocates considerable resources to perform scientific research aimed at enhancing safety and
environment protection standards. The requirements of the RS rules aimed at minimising the mankind impact on the marine environment are based upon scientifically based risk assessment and risk management procedures.
