ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards

bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out

through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical

committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International

organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.

ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of

electrotechnical standardization.

The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are

described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the

different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the

editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www .iso .org/ directives).

CEN (Vienna Agreement).

This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition (ISO 19901-5:2016), which has been

technically revised.
The main changes compared to the previous edition are as follows:
— part title changed to "Weight Management";
— document restructured and columnization removed;
— weight control classes removed;
— requirements for weight management for all project phases implemented;
— annexes deleted or relocated to body of document:

— previous Annex A “Weight data sheets – tagged equipment” combined with previous Annex B

“Weighing certificates” to create new joined into a new Annex B “Weighing certificates”;

— previous Annex C “Weight and load budget (WLB) formats and levels” replaced with new

Annex C “Control weights”;
— deleted previous Annex D “Major elements of the weight displacement”;

— information in previous Annex E “Supplier weighing procedure” relocated to Clause 8;

— deleted previous Annex F “Guidelines for displacement measurement of floating facilities”;

Introduction

The International Standards on offshore structures prepared by TC 67/SC 7 (ISO 19900, the ISO 19901

series, ISO 19902, ISO 19903, ISO 19904-1, the ISO 19905 series, and ISO 19906) constitute a common

basis covering those aspects that address design requirements and assessments of all offshore facilities

used by the petroleum and natural gas industries worldwide. Through their application the intention

is to achieve reliability levels appropriate for manned and unmanned offshore facilities, whatever the

type of structure and the nature of the materials used.

It is important to recognize that structural integrity is an overall concept comprising models for

describing actions, structural analyses, design rules, safety elements, workmanship, quality control

procedures and national requirements, all of which are mutually dependent. The modification of one

aspect of design in isolation can disturb the balance of reliability inherent in the overall concept or

structural system. The implications involved in modifications, therefore, need to be considered in

relation to the overall reliability of all offshore structural systems.

The International Standards on offshore structures prepared by TC 67/SC 7 are intended to provide a

wide latitude in the choice of structural configurations, materials and techniques without hindering

innovation. Sound engineering judgement is therefore necessary in the use of these International

Standards.
