MODU Code – Construction and Equipment Rules for Mobile Offshore Drilling Units
Publication in FrenchPrinted version
Comprehensive International Standard for Offshore Drilling Safety
The MODU Code – Construction and Equipment Rules for Mobile Offshore Drilling Units is the definitive reference for professionals in the maritime and offshore drilling industries. Adopted by the International Maritime Organization (IMO) through Resolution A.1023(26), this code establishes a rigorous international standard for the construction and equipment of new mobile offshore drilling units (MODUs) built from January 1, 2012. Designed to ensure safety levels equivalent to those required by the SOLAS 1974 Convention and the 1988 Protocol to the International Convention on Load Lines, this publication is indispensable for engineers, naval architects, surveyors, and regulatory authorities involved in offshore operations.
Updated Regulations for Modern Offshore Operations
This 2009 edition of the MODU Code represents a complete revision of the 1989 version (Resolution A.649(16)), incorporating the latest amendments to SOLAS 1974 regulations and ICAO provisions for helicopter facilities. It reflects the evolving challenges of offshore drilling, addressing critical aspects such as structural integrity, fire protection, life-saving appliances, and operational safety. By harmonizing international requirements, the code facilitates the global mobility of MODUs while ensuring compliance with the highest safety standards. For units constructed before 2012, the 1989 MODU Code remains applicable, making this publication a vital resource for both new and existing offshore assets.
