offshore NUI lighting

[jay80]

Hi,
In an offshore normally unmanned installation is it mandatory to provide a task lighting and escape lighting or is it ok to provide only escape lighting.
Any code reference for the above will be appreciated.
regards

The IEC61892 series apply for offshore oil&gas installations and IEC61892-2 §11 gives the lighting requirements. The series does not give secial rules for normally unmanned installations and praxis in the Danish North-sea is to have general service light.
Best regards

hi
Thanks Preben
also API RP 14 F states the same about the lighting. however as you have indicated that in north sea that there is a practice of installing only the service light. does that imply that there is no mandatory requirements for lighting for NUI ?
