This standard defines requirements related to health, safety and environment (HSE) related to construction and installation- activities on- and offshore, including marine installation activities.

The requirements in this standard set requirements to each project execution.

NORSOK S-006 describes requirements to the Company's HSE management system, which is therefore not covered by this standard.

The standard attempts to define a process for the project through which all involved parties focus on risk, activity, responsibility, systematisation and communication/collaboration.

When contracts are entered into for simple assignments with limited risk, the Company and the Contractor shall agree on the extent to which the standard shall be applied.
