This nice practical guide was written with the original intention to demonstrate to the readers the whole range and scope of OSV activities and also provide necessary guidelines for safety management necessary because of the complexity of the activities in which the offshore support vessels are involved.
The chapters of the Guide address following major topics - Offshore Support Vessel design; Dive Support Vessels (DSV); Construction Vessels; Remotely Operated Vehicle (i.e. ROV) Support Vessels; Pipe Lay Vessels; Diving Operations; Construction Operations; ROV Support Vessel Operation; DPS; ISM Code and ISPS Code; Shipboard Safety; Environmental and Ballast Management.
An appendix at the end of the books provides some information on the saturation diving systems as well as the ROV and the history of their development. The information contained in this publication has already been greatly appreciated by both industry professionals using the book for refreshing of their technical knowledge and skills and by the newcomers to the industry who have found the content very easy to understand, and this approach is what have made the book so popular and highly recommendable worldwide.
