182 MSF Rev. 3 International Guidelines for The Safe Operation of Dynamically Positioned Offshore Supply Vessels/Международные руководящие принципы по безопасной эксплуатации динамически расположенных морских судов снабжения

Издание на английском языке
The book examines the importance of reliable positioning methods for the safe operation of vessels near offshore installations, focusing on dynamic positioning (DP) as the main method. DP systems are widely used in sectors such as underwater operations, drilling, construction and transportation, especially in deepwater mining. IMO MSC/Circ.645, updated in 2017, provides a framework for safe DP system operations, including requirements for ship design, construction, and operation. He also highlights the importance of redundancy and verification of DP systems, including failure Mode and Consequence Analysis (FMEA). DP operator training is regulated by international standards such as IMO MSC/Circ.738 and IMCA recommendations. The Continuous Professional Development (CPD) program, developed by the Nautical Institute and IMCA, ensures that crews meet training and safety requirements. The document provides recommendations for ship operators, charters, and captains regarding the safe operation of DP vessels, taking into account existing industry requirements and practices. It was developed by an international working group and updated with the participation of the Marine Safety Forum and IMCA to ensure safe operations in an international context.
