SECTION 1
GENERAL
Electronic binding versions
As of October 2010, we are introducing two new DNV service document types to be used for services that are
not limited to offshore and/or not to be considered as DNV Rules for classification of Ships or HSLC/NSC. The
documents have been named; DNV Service Specifications (DSS) and DNV Standards (DS).
Additionally, as of October 2010 all DNV service documents are primarily published electronically. The electronic pdf versions of the documents found through http://www.dnv.com are the officially binding versions.
In order to initiate and ensure a practical transition from the OSS/OS to DSS/DS scheme for relevant documents
and print scheme to the electronic scheme the following has been done:,
All documents that should be transferred without further change in content to the new document types DSS or
DS and those having incorporated amendments and corrections more recent than the date of the latest printed
issue, have been renamed as relevant and given the date October 2010.
Except the already incorporated amendments and corrections, no other changes have been made to the documents.
The applicable documents are shown in the table below.

Update Scheme
The update scheme of the documents is as follows:
1) Whenever revised, or undergoing significant editorial changes, a document will be given a new edition date
and the main changes will be described on Page 3 of that document. The corresponding Adobe PDF file
will be made available through http://www.dnv.com/resources/rules_standards/ and the date of the Current edition column of Table 1 in Sec.2 will be updated.
2) If, at a later date, the need arises for insignificant editorial corrections to the document, the electronic file
will be updated, but the edition date will be retained. However, a new Adobe PDF file will be generated
and made available through http://www.dnv.com/resources/rules_standards/. The date of the PDF file will
appear in the Editorial corrections column of Table 1 in Sec.2.
Discontinued updating of the Amendments and Corrections document
As a result of moving away from the Print scheme there is no longer need for a separate Amendments and
corrections document which intention was to supply buyers of printed documents with a detailed view of
amendments to the documents applicable after issued in print.
The electronic PDF files are now the officially binding versions and will always be kept current and downloadable.
Readers of documents are encouraged to regularly check for updates in order to ensure that they hold the current updated versions.

DNV-OSS-101
Rules for Classification
of Offshore Drilling
and Support Units

Main changes
Well Intervention Units:
The current DNV-OSS-101 does not take into account the needs of the industry. Well Intervention Unit service notation has therefore been split in two,
and one of the service notations will be voluntary instead of mandatory as it is
today.
The WELL notation has been split in two - where the WELL-1 notation will
not require the owner to certify the sub sea equipment (RS1).
ISDS:
New voluntary class notations for Independent Software Dependent System
Integration (ISDS-1 to 3) introduced.
Hull PMS:
Hull PMS (planned maintenance system) introduced as an optional alternative
survey arrangement- also for offshore units.
In-service Inspection of structures:
The inspection scope for column-stabilised units has been updated with increased emphasis on renewal survey, and corresponding reduced external
scope for intermediate surveys.

DNV-OSS-102

Rules for Classification

of Floating Production,
Storage and Loading Units

Provisions for Ageing Units:

Alternative to increased inspection due to age has been introduced, allowing
for inspection based on the actual condition rather than age in order to maintain the required safety level.

provider for execution of condition monitoring.
General update of references and editorial improvements: Based on experience feed-back from users.
This service specification; DSS-314: Verification of Hydrocarbon Refining and
Petrochemical Facilities replaces the previous version of the document with short
name; DNV-OSS-314. There are no changes in content, only how the document is
referred to, as OSS now will be used for Service Specifications intended for Offshore use.
This service specification; DSS-315: Verification of Onshore LNG and Gas Facilities replaces the previous version of the document with short name; DNV-OSS315. There are no changes in content, only how the document is referred to, as OSS

Definitions of terms have been updated.
Ropes
This standard now presents three certificate formats, ropes for Long-Term -,
ropes for Mobile Moorings and one for thimbles.
Approval of Manufacturer schemes for fibre rope manufacturers and load
bearing yarn manufacturers are introduced.
Testing procedure for load bearing yarns is introduced
The structure of each chapter is reorganized in order to separate the applicable
requirements to long term mooring and. mobile mooring. The scope of testing
for mobile mooring is brought in line with ISO 18962, whilst for long term
moorings the principle of application of specific mooring systems performance is reinforced.
Rules for hardware (thimbles) have been clarified.
Testing methods, which are subject to approval, have been removed from Ch.2
Sec.3.
The previous Appendixes A, B, C and D on Fibre rope stretch and stiffness,
Measuring and Expressing the Rope Change-in-Length Properties, Changein-length test methods for long-term mooring and Quality review report
have been removed.
The term soil barrier is replaced by filter, as this is the commonly used term
in other standards.
Added a new Appendix A containing scope of survey for fibre-rope production.

M085 Hazardous materials documentation - appendix 2 substances

M100 Material declaration
M110 Declaration of conformity relating to use of hazardous materials
M120 Hazardous materials location plan.

In addition documentation types M081, M083 and M084 have been amended.
This new document provides a uniform guideline for the general qualification of
Automated Ultrasonic Testing (AUT) systems, ensuring that the qualification and
project specific validation of any AUT system is according to the requirements of
OS-F101 Appendix E and is consistently performed to comply with the specific requirements of the referenced code.
In principle, the guideline can be utilised for all materials but special care shall be
taken for applications where inconsistent wave propagation or other wave physics
are affected by structural properties.
