NDT operators shall be qualified to EN 473. Non-destructive testing of all welded elements shall be
performed according to NORSOK M101, section 9 with the following exceptions:

Table 9.1 for inspection category determination shall not be used. Inspection category must be
determined by the crane designer for each component and weld based on the consequence of a
defect and the probability of a defect. The consequence depends on which part of the crane is
concerned and on number of independent load bearing elements. The probability of a defect
depends on type of loading (static or dynamic), type of stress situation (tension, compression and
shear), stress level and joint complexity/design. The selection of inspection categories shall be such
that the full ranges of categories are used.

If the acceptance criteria are not met, repair is not mandatory. Competent personnel shall evaluate
the defects and a corrective action decided upon. Evaluation and corrective action shall be
documented.

Repair of welding defects:


Welding defects shall be repaired according to NORSOK M101, section 101 with the exception
above.

Fabrication, welding and inspection of piping shall be carried out according to NORSOK M-601.
2.45 Brakes (clarification of app. I)
The brakes shall be engaged immediately in case of power failure to the main motor(s) or with any
failures in the crane control system. NB! this also applies i case of main line breakage in the hydraulic
system, pump breakdown or similar .

Winch brakes (on both hoist and luffing winch) shall engage automatically when upper or lower limit
switch is activated. This however, does not apply to the lower hoist limit switch when the hook is in
the sea lift zone.
2.46 Crane recording system
2.46.1 General
2.46.1.1 Main functions
The crane shall be equipped with a recording system, which is connected to the cranes control- and
load indicator system (PLC or crane computer). The recording system is communicating with the
control system and makes it possible to store parameters of importance in memory. The recording
system shall have three main functions:

1. The recording system shall store information about how much the crane and the machinery have
been used and the load on the crane structure. The S.W.P. (safe working period) for the machinery
shall be calculated, the total number of load cycles that have been done and the load class the crane
belongs to, based on the actual use of the crane. The information shall be shown on a display
1
that
is connected to the system.

2. Data for fatigue calculations of critical components shall also be stored and be available in order to
carry out such calculations.

3. In addition there shall be a condition recorder that continually records various data, where the
purpose is to be able to repeat the cranes running condition for a defined period in the past.
2.46.1.2 Equipment
The equipment for recording shall record data continually without any need for manual routines to
update the data sets, i.e. the recording equipment shall be able to automatically load and store the data
necessary to display history, doing fatigue calculations and storing data to the condition recorder.

1
A printer can be used as a an alternative


The recording system may be a part of the cranes programmable control system and/or a separate
unit(s) for recording and showing the recording data. The system shall be equipped with a screen and
shall contain software to display historical information about the crane. The screen shall be a part of
the system and may be permanent or easily connected to the system when needed. The systems time
reference must be available and easy to adjust.

The main motor(s) shall have an hour counter even if that is included in the recording system.

The recording system shall be supplied from the same power source that supplies the cranes control-
and load indicator system.
2.46.1.3 Storing of data
The recording system shall have enough storage capacity to keep the recorded data in the cranes
operating life time, without having to down loading files etc. to release space in the systems memory.
However, the system shall have back-up features and have restore capabilities to replace damaged files
etc. from old back-up sets. The recorded data should be accumulated in tables and stored in a limited
number of files.
2.46.1.4 Communication errors
If communication between the programmable control system and the recording system is lost, this
shall be indicated on the control panel. This applies also if storing of data to files is not completed.
These errors shall however not prevent the crane driver from operating the crane.
2.46.2 Functions
2.46.2.1 Presentation of historical data
The recording system shall at any time have the possibility to present a summary of exposed load on
the crane structure and crane machinery. This summary shall be presented as information about the
actual duration of service of the machinery (minimum for the hoist-, boom- and slewing machinery)
and information about the load on the cranes structure. The actual duration of service for installed
cranes is to be calculated with methods described in FEM 9.755 (06.93). If a new recording system is
installed in these cranes, the results from this calculation, are to be set as initial values into the new
recording system.
It shall be possible to view the information on the systems screen without downloading or moving any
data from the system, i.e. the summary has to be a report generated from the recording systems
software. It shall be possible to export this summary to a file, which format easily can be read by for
example a spreadsheet.
A table showing minimum the following information shall be available on the screen:

General:
Number of days since crane became operational
Number of days the crane has been used
Total number of start / stop sequences of main motors
Running time for main motors in hours

follows FEM 9.755 (06.93) table 1, line 4, ref. table 10 below.
2.46.2.2 Data for calculation of fatigue
In addition to the information mention above, the recording system shall record and store data
necessary for calculation of fatigue of critical components on the crane. This information shall be
stored in the recording system during the whole operational time of the crane.

Data for calculation of fatigue is based on storing one post of data each lift cycle, i.e. one set of data is
generated when each lift cycle is finished. This gives detailed information about the lift cycles carried
out by the crane and will give reliable calculations of fatigue, and can be used as a basis for other
analysis. Below is a summary of the information minimum required in each post (stored each lift
cycle):

Parameter Unit. Comment
Start time [dd/mm/yyyy]
[hh:mm:ss]
Time of lift cycle started
Duration [sec] From start of lift cycle to crane is ready for a
new lift
Configuration Number of falls selected on the load indicator
Static hook load
3
[XX.x T] Load in hook

Static hook load means the weight of the load in the hook. In case of varying weights (for instance when filling a water bag), the maximumweight of the
load shall be recorded


Percent SWL [%] Max SWL during lift cycle in percent
Dynamic hook load [XX.x T] Max hook load recorded during lift cycle
Radius at max hook load [XX.x m]
Max boom rope tension [XXX.x kN] If crane is equipped with boom rope load cell
Radius at max boom rope
tension
[XX.x m]
Slew angle start [deg] Slew angle at start of lift cycle
Slewing left [deg] Total slewing movement to the left
Slewing right [deg] Total slewing movement to the right
Boom angle start [deg] Boom angle at start of lift cycle
Boom angle inwards [deg] Change of boom angle inwards
Boom angle outwards [deg] Change of boom angle outwards
Table 3

Fatigue calculations and implementation of other analysis can be executed on another computer then
the one which is doing the recording. In that case data have to be copied from the recording system to
the other computer before the calculations can take place.
2.46.2.3 Activity recorder
The activity logger shall store values for all important signals entering the crane control unit, including
calculated variables in the control system containing important information. The main purpose with the
activity logger is the possibility to analyze special events such as engine failure or crane accidents. The
values thus shall be recorded fast enough to ensure that important events or conditions are captured.
Such conditions may for instance be overload situations, irregular high / low pressures in the hydraulic
system, use of override switches etc. The activity logger may consist in a separate unit or can be
embedded with the recording system.

The activity logger shall store data when the crane is in use
4
, and shall as a minimum, store
information for the last 24 hours
5
of operation. When the logger is full, the oldest data shall be deleted
first such that the logger always keeps information of the last 24 hours of operation with the crane.

It shall be possible to export data out of the activity logger for a later graphic presentation with
dedicated software. If asked for by the Company, the software performing this presentation shall be
delivered with the recording system.
