Studies and project reports

DNV GL has produced five reports for the Petroleum Safety Authority Norway (PSA) which investigate various aspects of ICT security and the job of keeping the petroleum sector robust against cyber threats.

An increase in the weight, speed and size of trawl gear may be critical for equipment in the petroleum industry that is designed to withstand lower trawl loads.

Icebergs on a collision course with petroleum facilities represent a serious hazard. On commission from the PSA, ArcISo has performed a study.

On commission from the PSA, Haukeland University Hospital has prepared a report on “Pulmonological and neurological baseline screening and follow-up investigation in respect of operational deep diving in the depth range of 180-225 metres sea water”.

SINTEF has prepared a report for us compiling information on the availability of data on condition and risks, condition monitoring of previous faults, and vulnerabilities due to digital solutions that may affect safety.

We have had a report prepared describing relevant repair methods for load-bearing structures on the Norwegian Continental Shelf.

On behalf of the Petroleum Safety Authority Norway, DNV GL has prepared a report describing important safety aspects of determining the time it takes to safely terminate operations involving Dynamic Positioning (DP).

Proactima has conducted a study on behalf of the Petroleum Safety Authority Norway (PSA) related to technology for handling oil-based drilling mud.

The use of composite repairs appears to be on the rise. The PSA is working to help reduce the risk of major accidents linked to repair methods, not least by improving the industry’s knowledge and awareness of this topic.

We have carried out a project to increase the PSA’s and the industry’s level of knowledge about insider risk. The result of the project is a report, compiled by DNV GL.
