The offshore industry is moving away from prescriptive, one-size-fits-all rules toward risk-based, performance-driven design. The is the definitive guide for that transition. Whether you are designing a blast wall for a new FPSO or revalidating an aging platform’s fireproofing, this document is non-negotiable.

Offshore production platforms are characterized by highly congested equipment spaces, confined layouts, and an ever-present inventory of pressurized hydrocarbons. If a gas release occurs and encounters delayed ignition, the resulting explosion and pool/jet fires present extreme risks to life safety, environmental protection, and asset integrity.
