The analysis was prepared in order to identify and examine the practicalities of alternative solutions to immediate evacuation by lifeboat for mobile facilities, in order to ensure the rapid and effective evacuation of personnel at all times.
The aim was to increase knowledge and understanding of alternative solutions to immediate evacuation. Strengths and weaknesses of the different alternatives to immediate evacuation for mobile facilities were identified. The analysis highlights a number of challenges related to the use of the various options, both in terms of escalating factors and as a result of the location of the facility.
Since the analysis is based on a number of facility- and location-specific assumptions, individual companies should carry out similar assessments based on the relevant facility- and location-specific conditions, if it is planned to make use of the alternatives.
