H2S Awareness – “The Danger Within”
This Video has been produced by a cross industry workgroup to heighten the awareness of the risks of H2S and other hazardous gasses associated with the back loading and transportation of oil contaminated wet bulk waste (slops) from offshore installations on Offshore Support Vessels.
The Video highlights the criticality of adhering to the guidance and procedures found within the recently updated “Guidelines for Offshore Marine Operations” (GOMO)
JuT – Marine Operations 500M Zone

Developed by the MSF and Step Change to raise awareness on the risks from marine operations within offshore installation safety zones.
The film has been created by compiling several incidents which have occurred in the North Sea where vessels have collided or nearly collided with offshore installations.
Most of these incidents involve vessels that had been invited into the area around the platform – not errant vessels that had drifted in. The ‘500m safety zone’ surrounds all installations, and the OIM or a delegate is responsible for all marine operations in that zone. All vessels must be invited to enter.
Having a ‘marine responsible person’ communicating with, and monitoring, the movements of the vessels within this zone is good practice in the prevention of collisions. The JuT safety pack has several tools to help manage risk including:
a document which outlines the good practice involved when vessels work within the zone including; safe approach, pre-entry checks, working alongside and exiting
