NORSOK U-001 provides general requirements and recommendations for development of complete subsea production systems, from the define phase to decommissioning and abandonment, within the Norwegian continental shelf (NCS).

The standard has now undergone a revision process, and these are the main changes:

  • Well, template and geotechnical interfaces have been clarified, with focus on vertical loads and load distribution.
  • A description of well growth analysis has been added.
  • Material requirements have been clarified.
