Vessels, which for this purpose include hovercraft, submersible apparatus and installations in transit, are prohibited from entering or remaining in a safety zone except with the consent of the Health and Safety Executive or in accordance with regulations made under section 23(1) of the Petroleum Act 1987 (currently the Offshore Installations (Safety Zones) Regulations 1987 (S.I. 1987/1331)). The United Kingdom Hydrographic Office (UKHO) (http://www.ukho.gov.uk/Pages/Home.aspx) publishes nautical charts covering the area in which installations are located, which include information on the existence and, where the scale allows, the location of safety zones. Mariners are advised to keep paper charts up-to-date using appropriate Notices to Mariners or, where electronic charts are used, to subscribe to an appropriate updating service. Vessels meeting the requirements of the International Convention for the Safety of Life at Sea 1974 will carry nautical charts and nautical publications (such as Notices to Mariners) to plan and display the ship’s route for the intended voyage and to plot and monitor positions throughout the voyage. This may be compulsory for some vessels, for example under the Merchant Shipping (Safety of Navigation) Regulations 2002 (S.I. 2002/1473). The UKHO also broadcasts Radio Navigational Warnings in relation to safety zones where updates to charts have yet to take effect and where installations are in transit. Maritime safety information, which includes information on safety zones, is issued via the appropriate International Maritime Organisation, Global Maritime Distress and Safety System broadcast systems as defined by the World-Wide Navigational Warning Service. It is estimated that the installations, which are not on station at the time of making this Order, will arrive at their stations at the approximate time set opposite their name in the table below: Name of installation Estimated arrival at station Alder Subsea Tie-back, Alder Field September 2015 Edradour Manifold, Edradour Field 30th June 2015 Glenlivet Manifold, Glenlivet Field August 2015 Mariner Floating Storage Unit Subsea Installation, Mariner Field July 2015 Article 3 of this Order amends the co-ordinates for Cladhan Field Development Project in the Schedule to the Offshore Installations (Safety Zones) Order 2015. --- Source: https://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/2015/1406 (the official version) Page: https://openlegislation.uk/offshore-installations-safety-zones-no-2-order-2015 Contains public sector information licensed under the Open Government Licence v3.0.
