This recommended practice provides guidance for the structural integrity management (SIM) of existing fixed offshore structures used for drilling, development, production, and storage of hydrocarbons in offshore areas. However, the general principles of SIM apply to any structure.

Specific guidance is provided for the evaluation of structural damage, above and below-and below-water structural inspection, fitness-for-purpose assessment, risk reduction, mitigation planning, and the process of decommissioning.
