Rig Stabilisation Offshore Petroleum Production and Pipelines (Assessment of Environmental Effects) Regulations 1999 (as amended 2007) (as amended by the Energy Act 2008 (Consequential Modifications) (Offshore Environmental Protection) Order 2010) Offshore Petroleum (Conservation of Habitats) Regulations 2001 (as amended 2011) Dangerous Goods The Merchant Shipping (Dangerous Goods and Marine Pollutants) Regulations 1997 (as amended 1999) Chemical data sheets and labelling A ‐ 12 The Chemicals (Hazard Information and Packaging for Supply) Regulations 2002 (as amended 2008) (revoked by the Chemicals (Hazard Information and Packaging for Supply) Regulations 2009) EC Regulation 1907/2006 (REACH) REACH Enforcement Regulations 2008 SI 2852 determined in Stage 1 Balloch Field Development Environmental Statement Appendix A – Review of Legislation Regulator: DECC Deposits to sea for the purpose of rig stabilisation requires a Direction under the EIA and Habitat Regulations. This is in addition to the Direction required for deposits associated with pipelines. The deposit of stabilisation or protection materials, such as jack‐up rig stabilisation/anti‐scour deposits, or pipeline protection/free‐span correction deposits, must be the subject of a direction under the Offshore Petroleum Production and Pipelines (Assessment of Environmental Effects) Regulations 1999 (as amended). Some of these deposits were previously authorised under FEPA 1985, Part II Deposits in the Sea, but this was deemed inappropriate and all deposits in connection with the exploration and exploitation of offshore oil and gas should be regulated under the Petroleum Act 1998 and/or the related environmental regulations. However, this does not apply to decommissioning sediments, which will require an MCAA license (see Decommissioning). Regulator: Maritime and Coastguards Agency The regulations require that dangerous goods and marine pollutants are labelled and packed according to the International Maritime Dangerous Goods (IMDG) code and that dangerous goods declarations are provided to vessel masters prior to loading. Regulator: Health and Safety Executive The transport of chemicals to and from offshore fields is principally by road to shore base and then by sea. These regulations (commonly known as CHIP 3) specify safety data sheet format and contents and required packaging and labelling of chemicals for supply. The 2009 regulations, CHIP4, consolidate all amendments made to the Chemicals (Hazard Information and Packaging for Supply) Regulations since 2002. Regulator: DECC (and SEPA within Scottish territorial waters) REACH deals with the registration, evaluation, authorisation and restriction of chemical substances. REACH now extends to CCS activities, as stated under the Energy Act 2008 (Consequential Modifications) (Offshore Environmental Protection) Order 2010. Furthermore, the duty to enforce REACH within the seaward limits of the Scottish Territorial sea now lies with SEPA.
Balloch Field Development Environmental Statement Appendix A – Review of Legislation Vessels Issue Legislation Regulator and Requirements Rock dumping and other deposits of the seabed Fisheries liaison Model Clauses of Licence HSE Offshore Safety Division Operations Notice 3 The Petroleum Act 1998 Regulators: DECC supported by Marine Scotland and CEFAS and within territorial waters Scottish Government Marine Directorate Deposits in the sea were regulated through the MCAA but, as a result of the Petroleum Act 1998 this does not apply to anything done: (a) For the purpose of constructing a pipeline as respects any part of which an authorisation (within the meaning of Part III of the Petroleum Act 1998) is in force; or (b) For the purpose of establishing or maintaining an offshore installation within the meaning of Part IV of that Act. The equivalent of the DEPCON (deposition consent) required under the Petroleum Act 1998 for these activities is incorporated within the PWA process. Similarly, the DISCON (discharge consents) required under the Act is incorporated within the PON 15 process. However, a licence is required for “the deposit, by means of seabed injection, of material arising from offshore hydrocarbon exploration and production operations” and for deposits of rock, mattresses etc (excluding rig stabilisation) Regulator: DECC From the 7 th and 8 th Licensing rounds onwards, operators have been required to appoint a Fisheries Liaison Officer to liaise with the fishing industry and Government Fisheries Departments on exploration and production activities. HSE Offshore Safety Division Operations Notice 3, Liaison with Other Bodies, June 2008 outlines liaison routes to improve communication between operators and other users of the sea and includes a requirement for a Fisheries Liaison.
