Article summary

The European Commission has published a report assessing the implementation of the Directive 2013/30/EC on the Safety of Offshore Oil and Gas Operations. The Commission’s findings are largely positive and the report states that the aims of the directive have been met and Member States and industry are following requirements. The report covers the period from the date when Member States implemented Directive 2013/30/EC (July 2015 or sooner) to the end of transitional arrangements (July 2018). The assessment analysed Member States’ implementation methods and considered ‘strengths, weaknesses, options and challenges’ of this process.
