在世界范围内，海洋勘探、生产、开发和退役作业都是在各种结构上进行的。这些装置必须定期检查和维护，以确保结构完整性并将污染风险降至最低。海上结构物的维护，无论其分类如何，都必须包括爆破和涂层活动。本出版物的目的是建立应遵循的实践和程序，以最大限度地减少这些活动期间废喷砂磨料的排放，并将油漆过度喷涂到周围水域。

Worldwide, marine exploration, production, development and decommissioning operations are conducted from a variety of structures. These installations must be inspected periodically and maintained in order to assure structural integrity and minimize pollution risks. Maintenance of an offshore structure, regardless of its classification, necessarily includes blasting and coating activities. The purpose of this publication is to establish practices and procedures that should be followed to minimize the discharge of spent blast abrasive, and paint overspray to the surrounding waters during these activities.
