2. Special Offshore Structures and Support Vessels
The use of the marine
environment for renewable
energy, aquaculture, seabed
mining etc. has increased
extensively in the last years
This development calls for
international standards on
the design, installation,
operation and maintenance
of special offshore
structures and support
vessels

3. Special Offshore Structures and Support Vessels
ISO TC 8 Resolution 263:
ISO/TC 8 agrees to an approved work item (AWI) as proposed
by Mr Kent Molsted Jorgensen, DK, to establish ISO/TC8/WG3
for "special offshore structures and support vessels".
Scope: Special offshore structures and support vessels used to
install, commission, operate, service and maintain such special
offshore structures and vessels and other related systems.
The working group will initially focus on the offshore wind
energy sector as the need is most urgent in this industry.
