<p>This International Standard describes objectives, functional requirements and guidelines for emergency response</p>
<p>(ER) measures on installations used for the development of offshore hydrocarbon resources. It is applicable to</p>
<p>fixed offshore structures or floating production, storage and off-take systems.</p>
<p>NOTE For mobile offshore units, the ER plans developed in conformance with the requirements and recommendations of</p>
<p>the International Maritime Organization (IMO) are generally adequate for the normal, independent operation of the unit in most</p>
<p>locations. The following aspects of ER planning are generally not addressed by IMO and should be specially considered:</p>
<p>_ area evacuation, e.g. precautionary evacuation in areas of tropical revolving storms;</p>
<p>_ combined operations wherein an integrated command and ER system should be developed;</p>
<p>_ arctic operations;</p>
<p>_ uncontrolled flow from a well.</p>
