scope:

This standard addresses the site specific assessment of MOUs. Such assessments can be used as the basis for the MWS approval of the unit at the assessed location.

The integrity of the unit in the installed condition is the responsibility of the assured, and is subject to compliance with the assumptions and recommendations made in the site specific assessment and, where subject to MWS, the recommendations given in the location approval.

The marine operations that can occur during the development of an offshore asset or when objects, including MOU's are moved by water from one place to another are covered in DNVGL-ST-N001, which covers most offshore assets and operations that are likely to require MWS approval.
