This new Code is attached at Annex 1 and is intended to apply to new build vessels of up to 500 gross tons carrying up to 60 persons on board. The HS-OSC Code has been developed in recognition that the personnel being carried on vessels in the offshore renewable sector are not passengers in the normal sense, being better regarded as “industrial personnel” who comply with safety training and medical fitness standards more akin to normal seafarers.
