Defines transport related requirements for the construction, design and marking of offshore freight and service containers with maximum gross mass not exceeding 25000 kg, intended for repeated use to from and between offshore installations and ships. It also establishes a system for plating of offshore containers linked to a defined scheme for periodic examination and test, and introduces a requirement of pre-trip inspection of offshore containers.
