Lifting Equipment OperationR-003Rev. 1, October 1997FOREWORDNORSOK (The competitive standing of the Norwegian offshore sector) is the industry initiative toadd value, reduce cost and lead time and remove unnecessary activities in offshore fielddevelopments and operations.The NORSOK standards are developed by the Norwegian petroleum industry as a part of theNORSOK initiative and are jointly issued by OLF (The Norwegian Oil Industry Association) andTBL (Federation of Norwegian Engineering Industries). NORSOK standards are administered byNTS (Norwegian Technology Standards Institution).The purpose of this industry standard is to replace the individual oil company specifications for usein future petroleum industry developments and operations, subject to the individual company'sreview and application.The NORSOK standards make extensive references to international standards. Where relevant, thecontents of this standard will be used to provide input to the international standardisation process.Subject to implementation into international standards, this NORSOK standard will be withdrawn.Annex A is informative.Annex B is informative.Annex C is normative.INTRODUCTIONThe primary purpose of this standard is to provide owners and users of lifting equipment on anoffshore installation with a framework and guidance to enable them to operate lifting equipment in asafe and efficient manner. The purpose of this standard is to focus on safe operation of liftingequipment in order to establish, maintain and further develop an adequate level of safety forpersonnel, the environment and for physical assets during planning and execution of liftingoperations.While preparing this standard, due considerations have been taken to Norwegian statutoryregulations, OLF guidelines, international and European standards and to operating companiesinternal specifications and procedures concerning the safe use of lifting appliances and lifting gear.Since this NORSOK standard gives information to many user groups special guidelines for thedifferent groups may need to be established.NORSOK standardPage 3 of 35
Lifting Equipment Operation1R-003Rev. 1, October 1997SCOPEThis NORSOK standard establishes requirements and guidelines for safe operation of liftingequipment in the petroleum activities. It covers lifting appliances and lifting gear used in connectionwith lifting operations offshore. It does not cover drilling hoisting tools on the drill floor or in thedrilling derrick specifically designed and used for drilling operations or in the support of suchoperations, neither does it cover safe use of lifts, trucks and suspended scaffolding. Examples oflifting equipment covered and not covered by this standard are shown in annex A.Subjects covered include safe systems of work, i.e., management, planning, operation, selection,inspection/examination/testing and maintenance of lifting appliances and lifting gear as applicableas well as the requirements for competence of crane operators, slingers and signalmen.2NORMATIVE REFERENCESThe following regulations and standards include provisions which, through reference in this text,constitute provisions of this NORSOK standard. Latest issue of the references shall be used unlessotherwise agreed. Other recognised standards may be used provided it can be shown that they meetor exceed the requirements of the regulations and standards referenced below.When an EN standard or prEN standard has been published covering the same field of applicationas a referenced ISO standard, the EN or prEN standard shall apply as provisions of this standard.Regulations:Directorate for labourInspectionNorwegian PetroleumDirectorateOrder no. 522The Supply of Machinery (Safety) RegulationsOrder no. 523Order no. 524Design of Protective EquipmentMinimum Health and Safety Requirements for theUse by Workers of Protective Equipment at theWorkplaceRegulations relating to systematic follow-up ofthe Working Environment in the PetroleumActivitiesYA-003EN Standards:Chain and Components:EN 818-1Short Link Chain for Lifting Purposes - Safety Part 1 : General Conditionsof AcceptanceEN 818-2Short Link Chain For Lifting Purposes - Safety Part 2 : Medium ToleranceChain for Chain Sling - Grade 8NORSOK standardPage 4 of 35

Lifting Equipment OperationR-003Rev. 1, October 1997Detachable lifting equipmentRemovable below hook equipment for lifting appliances providing a link between the liftingappliance and the load being lifted and are detachable and easy to separate from the lifting appliancewithout disassembly. Examples of detachable lifting equipment are shown in annex A.Dangerous goodsGoods classified and labelled according to the IMDG code.Enterprise of competenceUnit within the operating companies organisation, another company or institution with adequatecompetence (theoretical knowledge and practical experience) to understand the design, calculationsand operation of lifting equipment and with the ability to carry out the necessary examinations andtests and issue the prescribed certificates.ExaminationVerification that the crane can safely continue in service including a functional test of all safetydevices i.e. limiting, indicating equipment, brakes, clutches etc. to verify that they operate within therequired tolerances. An examination is more thorough than an inspection.Fixed load attachment pointsFixed load attachment points are padeyes, lifting beams, foundation for winches, "buckets" forwireline cranes and beams for use of beam clamps.InspectionLooking at the crane for defects and checking the operation of the controls, limiting and indicatingdevices without loading the crane. This is much more than a casual glance but does not normallyrequire any part of the crane to be dismantled.Lifting applianceMachine or appliance used for the purpose of lifting goods and materials, or in special casespersonnel. Examples of lifting appliances are given in Annex A.Lifting componentsLifting components are elements not attached to the lifting appliance and placed between the liftingappliance and the load or on the load in order to attach it.Lifting equipmentThe term lifting equipment is used in this standard as a common expression for lifting appliances,lifting gear and lifting components used together or separately.Examples of lifting equipment are given in Annex A.Lifting gearLifting gear means chain, shackles, rings, hooks, swivels, drum fasteners, steel plate clips, blocks,loading pallets and chain, wire or rope slings etc. which do not form parts of the permanentarrangement to the lifting appliance. Examples of lifting gear are given in Annex A.NORSOK standardPage 7 of 35
