Various aspects of offshore platform mandated responsibility are discussed. Particular emphasis is placed on the structural inspection of offshore oil and gas platforms; and recommendations for an inspection program of offshore platforms are presented. Inspection considerations for the identification of structural flaws, degradation, or changes that would require remedial measurer to safeguasd human life, conserve natural resources, and protect the environment are addressed. Criteria for inspections address such issues as safety of personnel, adequacy of monitoring techniques, costbenefit relationships, adequacy and credibility of inspections, priorities, and available technology. Recommended inspections have been placed in four categories relating to the merits of the inspections and the available Nondestructive Examinations (NDE) techniques. Corresponding and potential Research and Development areas are identified. A bibliography of current documents, papers, and reports is included. (Jensen)
