Full Description

This recommended practice provides an assessment process for the consideration of fire and blast in the design of offshore structures and includes guidance and examples for setting performance criteria.

This document complements the contents of the Section 18 of API RP 2A, 21st Edition with more comprehensive guidance in design of both fixed and floating offshore structures against fire and blast loading. Guidance on the implementation of safety and environmental management practices and hazard identification, event definition and risk assessment can be found in API RP 75 and the API RP 14 series.

The interface with these documents is identified and emphasized throughout, as structural engineers need to work closely with facilities engineers experienced in performing hazard analysis as described in API RP 14J, and with the operator's safety management system as described in API RP 75.
