Petroleum and natural gas industries - Specific requirements for offshore structures - Part 5: Weight control during engineering and construction (ISO 19901-5:2003)

ISO 19901-5:2003 specifies requirements for controlling the weight and centre of gravity (CoG) by means of mass management during the engineering and construction of structures for the offshore environment. The provisions are applicable to offshore projects that include structures of all types and materials.
ISO 19901-5:2003 differentiates between projects where considerations with regard to weight and CoG have a high priority as a result of weight and/or CoG sensitivity, and projects where weight and CoG are of little consequence. This differentiation has been made by the introduction of three different classes of structure (Class A, Class B and Class C). Depending on the degree of control necessary, different clauses of ISO 19901 will apply; clause 4 provides guidelines for assigning one of these classes.
ISO 19901-5:2003 specifies quality requirements for reporting of weights and centres of gravity, specifies requirements for weight reporting, provides a basis for overall project status reports or management reports for all classes, specifies requirements for weight and load budgets for offshore installations, specifies the methods and requirements for the weighing of major assemblies and the determination of weight and centre of gravity, specifies requirements for weight information from suppliers, including weighing of equipment and bulk materials for offshore installations.
It may be used as a basis for planning and presentation of the contractor's weight-reporting system; as a basis for evaluation of the contractor's weight-reporting system; as a means of refining the structural analysis/model; as a contract reference between the ordering client and the contractor; and as a basis for costing.

Erdöl- und Erdgasindustrie - Offshore-Plattformen - Teil 5: Gewichtskontrolle während der Auslegung und Konstruktion (ISO 19901-5:2003)

Dieser Teil von ISO 19901 legt Anforderungen für die Kontrolle von Gewicht und Massenschwerpunkt mittels Massenmanagement während der Auslegung und Konstruktion von Bauwerken für Offshore-Umgebungen. Die Festlegungen gelten für Offshore-Projekte, bei denen Bauwerke unterschiedlicher Arten und aus unterschiedlichen Werkstoffen einbezogen sind.
Dieser Teil von ISO 19901 unterscheidet zwischen Projekten, bei denen der Berücksichtigung von Gewicht und Massenschwerpunkt auf Grund der Gewichts- und/oder Massenschwerpunktempfindlichkeit besondere Priorität beizumessen ist, und Projekten, bei denen Gewicht und Massenschwerpunkt nur eine geringfügige Bedeutung haben. Diese Unterscheidung wurde durch die Einführung von drei verschiedenen Klassen
(Klasse A, Klasse B und Klasse C) getroffen. In Abhängigkeit vom erforderlichen Grad der Kontrolle gelten
unterschiedliche Abschnitte von ISO 19901; Abschnitt 4 enthält Anleitungen bezüglich der Zuordnung zu den einzelnen Klassen.

Industries du pétrole et du gaz naturel - Exigences spécifiques relatives aux structures en mer - Partie 5: Contrôles des poids durant la conception et la fabrication (ISO 19901-5:2003)

L'ISO 19901-5:2003 spécifie les exigences relatives au contrôle du poids et du centre de gravité (CdG) par la gestion des masses pendant les phases d'étude et de construction des structures en mer. Les dispositions s'appliquent aux projets de structures en mer de tous types et matériaux.
L'ISO 19901-5:2003 fait la distinction entre les projets où une forte priorité est donnée aux aspects liés au poids et au centre de gravité du fait de la sensibilité du projet aux variations de ces paramètres, et les projets où les variations de poids et de centre de gravité ont peu de conséquences. Cette distinction est effectuée par l'introduction de trois classes différentes de structure (Classe A, Classe B et Classe C). Selon le degré de contrôle nécessaire, différents articles de l'ISO 19901-5:2003 s'appliqueront; l'Article 4 fournit des lignes directrices pour attribuer l'une de ces classes.
L'ISO 19901-5:2003 spécifie les exigences de qualité pour l'établissement de rapports de poids et de centres de gravité, spécifie les exigences relatives aux rapports de poids, fournit une base commune pour l'établissement d'états d'avancement ou de rapports de suivi du projet dans son ensemble, quelle que soit la classe considérée, spécifie les exigences relatives aux budgets de poids et de charges des installations en mer, spécifie les méthodes et les exigences relatives au pesage des principaux assemblages et à la détermination du poids et du centre de gravité, spécifie les exigences relatives aux données de poids provenant des fournisseurs, y compris le pesage des équipements et des matériaux en vrac pour les installations en mer.
Elle peut être utilisée comme base de planification et de présentation du système de suivi des poids du contracteur, comme base d'évaluation du système de suivi des poids du contracteur, comme moyen d'amélioration de l'analyse et du modèle des structures, comme référence pour l'établissement du contrat entre le donneur d'ordre et le contracteur, et comme base d'établissement des coûts.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 19901-5 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 67, Materials, equipment and offshore structures
for petroleum, petrochemical and natural gas industries, Subcommittee SC 7, Offshore structures.
ISO 19901 consists of the following parts, under the general title Petroleum and natural gas industries —

Introduction
The offshore structures International Standards ISO 19900 to ISO 19906 constitute a common basis covering
those aspects that address design requirements and assessments of all offshore structures used by the
petroleum and natural gas industries worldwide. Through their application the intention is to achieve reliability
levels appropriate for manned and unmanned offshore structures, whatever the type of structure and the
nature of the materials used.
It is important to recognize that structural integrity is an overall concept comprising models for describing
actions, structural analyses, design rules, safety elements, workmanship, quality control procedures and
national requirements, all of which are mutually dependent. The modification of one aspect of design in
isolation can disturb the balance of reliability inherent in the overall concept or structural system. The
implications involved in modifications, therefore, need to be considered in relation to the overall reliability of all
offshore structural systems.
The offshore structures International Standards are intended to provide a wide latitude in the choice of
structural configurations, materials and techniques without hindering innovation. Sound engineering
judgement is therefore necessary in the use of these International Standards.

This part of ISO 19901 specifies requirements for controlling the weight and centre of gravity (CoG) by means

provisions are applicable to offshore projects that include structures of all types and materials.
This part of ISO 19901 differentiates between projects where considerations with regard to weight and CoG

this part of ISO 19901 will apply; Clause 4 provides guidelines for assigning one of these classes.
This part of ISO 19901
 specifies quality requirements for reporting of weights and centres of gravity,
 specifies requirements for weight reporting,
 provides a basis for overall project status reports or management reports for all classes,
 specifies requirements for weight and load budgets for offshore installations,
 specifies the methods and requirements for the weighing of major assemblies, and the determination of
weight and centre of gravity,
