Norsok standard n-006-2009 Assessment of structural integrity for existing offshore load-bearing structures

The Norwegian Oil Industry Association (OLF) and Federation of Norwegian Manufacturing Industries (TBL). Edition 1, March 2009. 58p. This NORSOK standard specifies general principles and guidelines for assessment of the structural integrity of existing offshore structures as a supplement to NORSOK N-001 and should be used in conjunction with NORSOK N-003, NORSOK N-004 and NORSOK N-
005. This NORSOK standard serves as an alternative to NORSOK N-001 for cases where structures are to be operated beyond original design requirements and structural resistance is not easily verified through ordinary design calculations, and where use of additional information gained through the life of the structure can be used to demonstrate structural adequacy.
