    About Standard

      SDC Verifier

    ISO 19902 is an international standard for fixed steel offshore structures used in the petroleum and natural gas industries. It was developed by ISO Technical Committee 67 / Subcommittee SC 7 and supersedes the older ISO 13819-2:1995.

    The standard provides engineering guidance for the design, fabrication, installation, inspection, and maintenance of offshore platforms such as jackets, mono towers, caissons, and braced structures.

    Key Facts:

    • First edition: ISO 19902:2007
    • Second edition: ISO 19902:2020, includes Amendment ISO 19902:2007/Amd.1:2013
    • Replaces: ISO 13819-2:1995

    It applies to:

    • Fixed steel offshore structures in shallow and moderate water depths
    • Steel gravity platformscompliant structures, and connected infrastructure like underwater tanks and bridges
    • Tasks across the entire lifecycle: from design and construction to in-service inspectionsrelocation, or removal

    ISO 19902 is commonly used to verify tubular member and joint strength through automated checks in SDC Verifier.
