Petroleum and natural gas industries - Specific requirements for offshore structures - Part 2: Seismic design procedures and criteria (ISO 19901-2:2022)
This document contains requirements for defining the seismic design procedures and criteria for
offshore structures; guidance on the requirements is included in Annex A. The requirements focus on
fixed steel offshore structures and fixed concrete offshore structures. The effects of seismic events on
floating structures and partially buoyant structures are briefly discussed. The site-specific assessment
of jack-ups in elevated condition is only covered in this document to the extent that the requirements
are applicable.
Only earthquake-induced ground motions are addressed in detail. Other geologically induced hazards
such as liquefaction, slope instability, faults, tsunamis, mud volcanoes and shock waves are mentioned
and briefly discussed.
The requirements are intended to reduce risks to persons, the environment, and assets to the lowest
levels that are reasonably practicable. This intent is achieved by using:
a) seismic design procedures which are dependent on the exposure level of the offshore structure and
the expected intensity of seismic events;
b) a two-level seismic design check in which the structure is designed to the ultimate limit state (ULS)
for strength and stiffness and then checked to abnormal environmental events or the abnormal
limit state (ALS) to ensure that it meets reserve strength and energy dissipation requirements.
Procedures and requirements for a site-specific probabilistic seismic hazard analysis (PSHA) are
addressed for offshore structures in high seismic areas and/or with high exposure levels. However, a
thorough explanation of PSHA procedures is not included.
Where a simplified design approach is allowed, worldwide offshore maps, which are included in
Annex B, show the intensity of ground shaking corresponding to a return period of 1 000 years. In
such cases, these maps can be used with corresponding scale factors to determine appropriate seismic
actions for the design of a structure, unless more detailed information is available from local code or
site-specific study.
NOTE For design of fixed steel offshore structures, further specific requirements and recommended values
of design parameters (e.g. partial action and resistance factors) are included in ISO 19902, while those for fixed
concrete offshore structures are contained in ISO 19903. Seismic requirements for floating structures are
contained in ISO 19904, for site-specific assessment of jack-ups and other MOUs in the ISO 19905 series, for arctic
structures in ISO 19906 and for topsides structures in ISO 19901-3.

Industries du pétrole et du gaz naturel - Exigences spécifiques relatives aux structures en mer - Partie 2: Procédures de conception sismique et critères (ISO 19901-2:2022)
Le présent document spécifie les exigences relatives à la définition des procédures et critères de conception parasismique pour les structures en mer; les recommandations concernant les exigences sont indiquées dans l'Annexe A. Les exigences portent sur les structures en mer fixes en acier et en béton. Les effets des événements sismiques sur les structures flottantes et partiellement flottantes sont brièvement décrits. L'évaluation, spécifique au site, des plates-formes auto-élévatrices en situation surélevée est uniquement traitée dans le présent document dans la mesure où les exigences sont applicables.
Seuls les mouvements du sol induits par des séismes sont traités en détail. D'autres risques géologiques tels que la liquéfaction, l'instabilité des pentes, les failles, les tsunamis, les volcans de boue et les ondes de choc sont également mentionnés et brièvement décrits.
Les exigences sont destinées à réduire les risques encourus par les personnes, l'environnement et les installations au niveau le plus bas qui soit raisonnablement réalisable. Ce résultat est obtenu à l'aide:
a) de procédures de conception parasismique qui dépendent du niveau d'exposition de la structure en mer et de l'intensité prévue des événements sismiques;
b) d'un contrôle de conception parasismique à deux niveaux, dans lequel la structure est conçue selon l'état limite ultime (ULS) en matière de résistance et de rigidité avant d'être vérifiée par rapport à des événements environnementaux anormaux ou à l'état limite anormal (ALS), afin de garantir qu'elle satisfait aux exigences de réserve de résistance et de dissipation d'énergie.
Les procédures et exigences s'appliquant à la réalisation d'une analyse probabiliste de l'aléa sismique (PSHA), spécifique au site, sont exposées pour les structures en mer installées dans des zones à forte activité sismique et/ou fortement exposées. Cependant, les procédures de l'étude PSHA ne sont pas expliquées de manière approfondie.
Lorsqu'une approche de conception simplifiée est admise, des cartes des eaux mondiales, incluses dans l'Annexe B, indiquent l'intensité des secousses du sol pour une période de retour de 1 000 ans. Dans de tels cas, ces cartes peuvent être utilisées avec les facteurs d'échelle correspondants pour déterminer les actions sismiques appropriées pour la conception d'une structure, sauf si des informations plus détaillées sont fournies par un code local ou une étude spécifique au site.
NOTE Pour la conception des structures en mer fixes en acier, d'autres exigences spécifiques et des valeurs recommandées des paramètres de conception (par exemple: coefficients d'action et de résistance partiels) sont indiquées dans l'ISO 19902, tandis que celles relatives aux structures en mer fixes en béton sont énoncées dans l'ISO 19903. L'ISO 19904 intègre des exigences parasismiques relatives aux structures flottantes, la série ISO 19905 des exigences relatives à l'évaluation spécifique au site de plates-formes auto-élévatrices et autres MOU, l'ISO 19906 des exigences relatives aux structures arctiques et l'ISO 19901‑3 des exigences relatives aux superstructures.
Industrija za predelavo nafte in zemeljskega plina - Posebne zahteve za naftne ploščadi - 2. del: Postopki potresno varnega projektiranja in potresna merila (ISO 19901-2:2022)
Ta dokument vsebuje zahteve za opredelitev postopkov potresno varnega projektiranja in potresnih meril za naftne ploščadi; smernice o zahtevah so podane v dodatku A. Zahteve se osredotočajo na varjene jeklene konstrukcije naftnih ploščadi ter nepremične betonske konstrukcije naftnih ploščadi. Na kratko obravnava učinke potresnih dogodkov
na plavajoče in delno plovne konstrukcije. Ocena dvižnih ploščadi na področju postavitve
je v tem dokumentu obravnavana le v obsegu, na katerega se navezujejo zahteve.
Podrobno so obravnavani samo premiki tal, ki jih sproži potres. Druga geološko pogojena tveganja, kot so utekočinjenje, nestabilnost pobočij, zdrsi, cunamiji, blatni vulkani in udarni valovi, so le omenjena
in obravnavana na kratko.
Namen zahtev je zmanjšati tveganja za osebe, okolje in sredstva na najnižjo
raven, ki je razumno dosegljiva. Ta namen se doseže z uporabo:
a) postopkov potresno varnega projektiranja, ki so odvisni od stopnje izpostavljenosti naftne ploščadi in
pričakovane jakosti potresnih dogodkov;
b) dvostopenjskega preverjanja potresno varnega projekta, v katerem je konstrukcija projektirana za končno mejno stanje (ULS) moči in togosti, nato pa preverjena še za neobičajne okoljske dejavnike ali neobičajno mejno stanje (ALS), s čimer se zagotovi, da konstrukcija izpolnjuje zahteve glede rezervne trdnosti in sproščanja energije. Za naftne ploščadi v območjih z visoko stopnjo potresne dejavnosti in/ali visoko stopnjo izpostavljenosti so obravnavani postopki in zahteve za verjetnostno analizo potresne nevarnosti (PSHA) na področju postavitve. V obravnavo pa ni zajeta podrobnejša razlaga postopkov verjetnostne analize potresne nevarnosti.
Za poenostavljen pristop k projektiranju, kadar je ta dovoljen, je na svetovnih obalnih zemljevidih, ki so vključeni v dodatek B, prikazana jakost tresenja tal s povratno dobo 1000 let. V takih primerih se lahko ti zemljevidi z ustreznimi faktorji merila uporabijo za določitev ustreznih potresnih vplivov za projektiranje konstrukcije, razen če so na voljo podrobnejše informacije iz lokalnih predpisov ali študije področja postavitve.
OPOMBA: Dodatne posebne zahteve in priporočene vrednosti projektnih parametrov (npr. faktor delnega vpliva in faktor odpornosti) za projektiranje varjenih jeklenih konstrukcij naftnih ploščadi so zajete v standardu ISO 19902, zahteve za nepremične betonske konstrukcije naftnih ploščadi pa v standardu ISO 19903. Potresne zahteve so za plavajoče konstrukcije zajete v standardu ISO 19904, za oceno dvižnih ploščadi na področju postavitve ter druge premične naftne ploščadi v skupini standardov ISO 19905, za arktične konstrukcije v standardu ISO 19906, za konstrukcije na palubi pa v standardu ISO 19901-3.

ISO 19901-2:2022(E)
Introduction
The International Standards on offshore structures prepared by TC 67 (i.e. ISO 19900, ISO 19902,
ISO 19903, ISO 19904 and ISO 19906) address design requirements and assessments of all offshore
structures 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 structures,
whatever the type of structure and the nature or combination of the materials used.
Structural integrity is an overall concept comprising models for describing actions, structural analyses,
design or assessment rules, safety elements, workmanship, quality control procedures and national
requirements, all of which are mutually dependent. The modification of one aspect of design or
assessment 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 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.
The overall concept of structural integrity is described above. Some additional considerations apply for
seismic design. These include the magnitude and probability of seismic events, the use and importance
of the offshore structure, the robustness of the structure under consideration and the allowable damage
due to seismic actions with different probabilities. All of these, and any other relevant information,
need to be considered in relation to the overall reliability of the structure.
Seismic conditions vary widely around the world, and the design criteria depend primarily on
observations of historical seismic events together with consideration of seismotectonics. In many
cases, site-specific seismic hazard assessments will be required to complete the design or assessment
of a structure.
This document is intended to provide general seismic design procedures for different types of offshore
structures, and a framework for the derivation of seismic design criteria. Further requirements are
contained within the general requirements International Standard, ISO 19900, and within the structure-
specific International Standards, ISO 19902, ISO 19903, ISO 19904 and ISO 19906. The consideration of
seismic events in connection with mobile offshore units is addressed in the ISO 19905 series.

Petroleum and natural gas industries — Specific
requirements for offshore structures —
Part 2:
Seismic design procedures and criteria
1 Scope
This document contains requirements for defining the seismic design procedures and criteria for
offshore structures; guidance on the requirements is included in Annex A. The requirements focus on
fixed steel offshore structures and fixed concrete offshore structures. The effects of seismic events on
floating structures and partially buoyant structures are briefly discussed. The site-specific assessment
of jack-ups in elevated condition is only covered in this document to the extent that the requirements
are applicable.
Only earthquake-induced ground motions are addressed in detail. Other geologically induced hazards
such as liquefaction, slope instability, faults, tsunamis, mud volcanoes and shock waves are mentioned
and briefly discussed.
The requirements are intended to reduce risks to persons, the environment, and assets to the lowest
levels that are reasonably practicable. This intent is achieved by using:
a) seismic design procedures which are dependent on the exposure level of the offshore structure and
the expected intensity of seismic events;
b) a two-level seismic design check in which the structure is designed to the ultimate limit state (ULS)
for strength and stiffness and then checked to abnormal environmental events or the abnormal
limit state (ALS) to ensure that it meets reserve strength and energy dissipation requirements.
Procedures and requirements for a site-specific probabilistic seismic hazard analysis (PSHA) are
addressed for offshore structures in high seismic areas and/or with high exposure levels. However, a
thorough explanation of PSHA procedures is not included.
Where a simplified design approach is allowed, worldwide offshore maps, which are included in
Annex B, show the intensity of ground shaking corresponding to a return period of 1 000 years. In
such cases, these maps can be used with corresponding scale factors to determine appropriate seismic
actions for the design of a structure, unless more detailed information is available from local code or
site-specific study.
NOTE For design of fixed steel offshore structures, further specific requirements and recommended values
of design parameters (e.g. partial action and resistance factors) are included in ISO 19902, while those for fixed
concrete offshore structures are contained in ISO 19903. Seismic requirements for floating structures are
contained in ISO 19904, for site-specific assessment of jack-ups and other MOUs in the ISO 19905 series, for arctic
structures in ISO 19906 and for topsides structures in ISO 19901-3.

3 Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this document, the terms and definitions given in ISO 19900 and the following apply.
ISO and IEC maintain terminology databases for use in standardization at the following addresses:
— ISO Online browsing platform: available at https:// www .iso .org/ obp
— IEC Electropedia: available at https:// www .electropedia .org/
3.1
abnormal level earthquake
ALE
intense earthquake of abnormal severity with a very low probability of occurring during the life of the
structure
Note 1 to entry: The ALE event is comparable to the abnormal event in the design of fixed structures that are
described in ISO 19902 and ISO 19903.
3.2
attenuation
decay of seismic waves as they travel from the earthquake source to the site under consideration
3.3
deaggregation
separation of seismic hazard contribution from different faults and seismic source zones
3.4
escape and evacuation system
system provided on the offshore structure to facilitate escape and evacuation in an emergency
EXAMPLE Passageways, chutes, ladders, life rafts and helidecks.
3.5
extreme level earthquake
ELE
strong earthquake with a reasonable probability of occurring during the life of the structure
Note 1 to entry: The ELE event is comparable to the extreme environmental event in the design of fixed structures
that are described in ISO 19902 and ISO 19903.
3.6
fault movement
movement occurring on a fault during an earthquake
3.7
ground motion
accelerations, velocities or displacements of the ground produced by seismic waves radiating away
from earthquake sources
Note 1 to entry: A fixed offshore structure is founded in or on the seabed (3.17) and consequently only seabed
motions are of significance. The expression "ground motions" is used rather than seabed motions for consistency
of terminology with seismic design for onshore structures.
Note 2 to entry: Ground motions can be at a specific depth or over a specific region within the seabed.

Introduction
The series of International Standards applicable to types of offshore structure, ISO 19900 to ISO 19906, addresses
design requirements and assessments of all offshore structures 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 structures, whatever the type of structure and the nature or combination of the materials used.
It is important to recognize that structural integrity is an overall concept comprising models for describing actions,
structural analyses, design or assessment rules, safety elements, workmanship, quality control procedures and
national requirements, all of which are mutually dependent. The modification of one aspect of design or assessment
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 series of International Standards applicable to the various types of offshore structure is 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.
The overall concept of structural integrity is described above. Some additional considerations apply for seismic
design. These include the magnitude and probability of seismic events, the use and importance of the offshore
structure, the robustness of the structure under consideration and the allowable damage due to seismic actions
with different probabilities. All of these, and any other relevant information, need to be considered in relation to the
overall reliability of the structure.
Seismic conditions vary widely around the world, and the design criteria depend primarily on observations of
historical seismic events together with consideration of seismotectonics. In many cases, site-specific seismic hazard
assessments will be required to complete the design or assessment of a structure.
This document is intended to provide general seismic design procedures for different types of offshore structures,
and a framework for the derivation of seismic design criteria. Further requirements are contained within the
general requirements standard, ISO 19900, and within the structure-specific standards, ISO 19902, ISO 19903,
ISO 19904 and ISO 19906. The consideration of seismic events in connection with mobile offshore units is
addressed in ISO 19905.
Some background to and guidance on the use of this document is provided in Annex A. The clause numbering in
Annex A is the same as in the normative text to facilitate cross-referencing.
Regional information on expected seismic accelerations for offshore areas is provided in Annex B.

DRAFT INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO/DIS 19901-2:2020(E)
Petroleum and natural gas industries — Specific requirements
for offshore structures — Part 2: Seismic design procedures
and criteria
1 Scope
This document contains requirements for defining the seismic design procedures and criteria for offshore
structures; guidance on the requirements is included in Annex A. The requirements focus on fixed steel offshore
structures and fixed concrete offshore structures. The effects of seismic events on floating structures and partially
buoyant structures are briefly discussed. The site-specific assessment of jack-ups in elevated condition is only
covered in this document to the extent that the requirements are applicable.
Only earthquake-induced ground motions are addressed in detail. Other geologically induced hazards such as
liquefaction, slope instability, faults, tsunamis, mud volcanoes and shock waves are mentioned and briefly
discussed.
The requirements are intended to reduce risks to persons, the environment, and assets to the lowest levels that are
reasonably practicable. This intent is achieved by using:
a) seismic design procedures which are dependent on the exposure level of the offshore structure and
the expected intensity of seismic events;
b) a two-level seismic design check in which the structure is designed to the ultimate limit state (ULS)
for strength and stiffness and then checked to abnormal environmental events or the abnormal limit
state (ALS) to ensure that it meets reserve strength and energy dissipation requirements.
Procedures and requirements for a site-specific probabilistic seismic hazard analysis (PSHA) are addressed for
offshore structures in high seismic areas and/or with high exposure levels. However, a thorough explanation of
PSHA procedures is not included.
Where a simplified design approach is allowed, worldwide offshore maps, which are included in Annex B, show the
intensity of ground shaking corresponding to a return period of 1 000 years. In such cases, these maps may be used
with corresponding scale factors to determine appropriate seismic actions for the design of a structure.
For design of fixed steel offshore structures, further specific requirements and recommended values of design
parameters (e.g. partial action and resistance factors) are included in ISO 19902, while those for fixed concrete
offshore structures are contained in ISO 19903. Seismic requirements for floating structures are contained in
ISO 19904, for site-specific assessment of jack-ups and other MOUs in ISO 19905 (all parts), for arctic structures in
ISO 19906 and for topsides structures in ISO 19901-3.
